Europe Genetic Testing Market

Europe Genetic Testing Market Size (2022 to 2027)

The Genetic Testing Market size in Europe was worth USD 16.19 billion in 2022 and is estimated to reach USD 25.51 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 9.52% during the forecast period. The European genetic testing market is growing continuously due to chronic disorders, cancer disease, and advanced diagnosis technology in Europe. 

Technologies such as next-generation sequencing made it possible to perform many genetic testing quickly and build databases with information about rare genetic diseases. As a result, several projects have been launched throughout Europe to raise public awareness about the benefits of genetic testing. In addition, governments are implementing several friendly and cooperative policies to integrate genetic testing into the healthcare system and make insurance reimbursements available to citizens. The most common screening tests in Europe include cancer genetic testing, Alzheimer's disease testing, and cystic fibrosis testing.

Personalized medicine is a thorough examination of the molecular underpinnings of a patient's ailment. Genetic testing and genome sequencing can be used to investigate the molecular underpinnings. Individuals are routinely screened for various uncommon and genetic disorders throughout Europe to ensure an early discovery, prevention, and management of any dangers. Because genetic testing plays such an important role in the process, the European genetic testing market outlook is expected to improve in the next few years.

The presence of well-known market companies involved in genetic testing and a favorable regulatory environment contribute to the industry's growth. Furthermore, improving patient awareness for early disease diagnosis and an increase in the prevalence of genetic diseases would drive market demand. In recent years, the practice of genetic testing for hereditary cancer syndromes has altered substantially. As a result, the need for genetic testing to detect cancer risks is driving the market's growth in developed countries such as Germany, France, and others.

However, some of the constraints that are likely to restrict the growth of the European genetic testing market are genomic data privacy, ethical and societal difficulties, and a lack of regulatory standards. During the forecast period, the genetic testing market is also expected to be hampered by concerns about the uniformity of genetic testing-based diagnoses and severe regulatory requirements for product approvals. Knowledge, health insurance, concerns about misuse of testing, privacy and confidentiality concerns, and distrust in their medical doctor are the specific barriers to genetic testing that are examined.

Regionally, the UK genetic testing market is estimated to dominate the European market during the forecast period. The United Kingdom is a high genetic disease-affected country. It is estimated that nearly 30000 pediatrics are newly diagnosed every year, and more than 2.5 million people have a genetic disorder. The UK government also initiated 100000 genome projects in 2018, and it published a second life science deal in 2018.

The genetic testing market in France is estimated to grow at a healthy rate during the forecast period. However, rising incidences of chronic diseases coupled with the increasing support from government organizations are majorly leveling up the market growth. 

Following France, the German genetic testing market is estimated to be growing at the fastest rate. The launch of reimbursement policies by the government is enhancing the demand of this market. Germany has taken the initiative with the help of a government insurance scheme in the country. In addition, the availability of skilled researchers in laboratories in developing innovative techniques is solely fuelling the market's growth rate.  

The Italian genetic testing market is expected to perform well in the coming years with the increasing incidences of infectious diseases. In addition, the growing prevalence to promote quality treatment services is leveraging the demand of the market. 

The Spain genetic testing market is expected to grow at a promising rate due to the awareness and rising disposable income in urban areas are significant factors for market growth.
