The global preventive vaccines market accounted for a value of USD 27.

6 billion in 2015 and


is expected to reach USD 55 billion by 2021, growing at a CAGR of 12.4% during the forecast
period from 2016 to 2021.

The vaccines market is different from any other commodity market. Compared to the
pharmaceutical market, the vaccines market is relatively small, although growing fast. The
vaccines market is rather concentrated on both supply and demand sides. It is highly
regulated and largely dependent on public purchasers and donor policies. The vaccines
market has very distinct features that increase the complexity of assessing and understanding
pricing and procurement in their context. It is made up of individual markets for individual
vaccines or vaccine types, each with its own specificities, particularly on the supply side.

New candidates for vaccination against cancer and HIV, which are under development, are
also projected to hit the magical milestone. Multinational vaccine companies historically have
conducted much of the innovation, research, and development in the field of vaccine
production. The companies have used their significant revenues, global size, and deeper
expertise to fund these R&D efforts. New technologies are also being introduced to curb the
time and expense incurred on new vaccine discovery and production. However, despite the
success of vaccines, infectious diseases are still a major cause of illnesses worldwide. At
least 40 major infectious diseases are still uncontrolled by vaccination.
