Laboratory Informatics is defined as the specialized application of information technology meant for extending and optimizing laboratory operations.
The China Laboratory Informatics Market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of more than 10% during the forecast period, i.e., 2021-26, says MarkNtel Advisors in their research report. The market, which was in its embryonic stage in 2019, is majorly driven by the healthcare & life sciences institutions. While its penetration in other industries like chemicals, petrochemicals, food & beverages, environmental testing, etc., remains infinitesimal with minute scope for adoption in the coming years.
Moreover, IT integration in specialty care centers has also been rising due to the surge in private investments, focusing on improving operational efficiency by accessing real-time data inputs. Additionally, massive investments in healthcare infrastructure, such as specialized hospitals & care centers, expansion of the chemicals industry, etc., are also expected to boost the market during 2021-26, further states the research report, “China Laboratory Informatics Market Analysis, 2021.”
