North America dominates the global life sciences BPO market with an estimated market share of 40.2% in 2024. The region is home to well-established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are looking to reduce operating costs through outsourcing non-core functionalities. The presence of large pharmaceutical customer base has attracted leading life sciences BPO vendors to set up facilities across major hubs in the U.S. and Canada. These companies offer a wide range of services from drug discovery and clinical research to regulatory services and commercialization activities.
Stringent regulatory requirements across the development and commercialization process also make these companies open to outsourcing work to specialized third-party providers. The region contributes significantly to the global clinical trials market due to initiatives by governments and private organizations to encourage pharmaceutical R&D. Other factors such as availability of expertise, need for data management and medical writing capabilities have further augmented North America's position as the leading market.
Among emerging regions, Asia Pacific is experiencing strong growth in the life sciences BPO sector. Countries such as India, China, Japan and South Korea are investing heavily in developing their healthcare infrastructure, workforce capabilities and regulatory frameworks. This has attracted life sciences companies globally to start outsourcing non-core functions to the region. India has emerged as the top destination for clinical research and data management services. It has a large English speaking talent pool qualified in sciences, lower costs of operations compared to Western countries and a developing ecosystem of global life sciences vendors.
