Radhika Singla, the principal analyst, stated, "Currently, over 70 companies are involved in providing antibody discovery services. In addition, several companies have developed proprietary drug discovery platforms, and are monetizing their efforts by actively out-licensing them to drug developers, CROs and academic institutes. It is also worth highlighting that close to USD 2.6 billion has been invested in this market over the last few years across several grants, venture capital funding rounds and public offerings."

The report presents opinions on several key aspects of the market. Among other elements, it includes:

• A detailed assessment of the current market landscape of companies offering antibody drug discovery services, including information on their geographical location, types of services offered (antigen designing, hit generation, lead selection, and lead optimization / and lead characterization), antibody generation methods (hybridoma based, library based, single cell based, transgenic animal based, wild type animal based and others), purpose of antibody discovery (therapeutic and diagnostic) and animal models used (rabbits, rats, mouse, llamas, chicken and others).
• An in-depth analysis of antibody platform providers, featuring information on their geographical location, antibody generation methods (hybridoma based, library based, single cell based, transgenic animal based, wild type animal based and others), type of antibodies discovered (ADCs, antibody fragments, bispecific antibodies, monoclonal antibodies and others), and animal models used (transgenic mice, rabbits, llamas and others).
• A comprehensive benchmark analysis, highlighting the key focus areas of small, mid-sized and large sized companies, comparing their existing capabilities within and beyond their respective peer groups, and providing a means for stakeholders to identify ways to gain a competitive edge in the industry.
