The Global population is expected to reach 8.3 billion in 2030 with 97% of the growth occurring in Developing countries & GDP in these countries is foreseen to grow by 4.6% per year and these trends in Population & Income will put a severe strain on Natural resources. However, Biotechnology offers solutions for many of the Health and Resource-based problems facing the world. The application of Biotechnology to Healthcare, Industry and primary production (Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing) will result in an emerging “Bioeconomy” where Biotechnology contributes to a significant share of economic output (GDP) of the Country. Integration of Biotechnology applications across sectors will drive the emerging Bioeconomy by creating opportunities for investment. The Bioeconomy will be global, but the main markets for Biotechnology will be in developing countries.
