Saudi Arabia in-vitro diagnostics market is predicted to reach US$ 1,195 Million by 2030, from US$ 780 Million in 2023. Saudi Arabia is the largest market for in-vitro diagnostics in the GCC region. As in other countries, Saudi Arabia is facing the challenges of fighting with infectious disease including HBV, TB, HCV and HIV, as well as various chronic diseases and cancer. In-vitro diagnostics plays an important role in the detection of infectious and chronic diseases. In-vitro diagnosis refers to the diagnosis of diseases or other condition of the human body through the collection, preparation, and testing of human samples with reagents, instruments, and systems.

The rising geriatric population and the high burden of chronic and infectious diseases propels the growth of Saudi Arabia in-vitro diagnostics market, as these chronic disorders can be diagnosed and monitored using in-vitro diagnostics (IVD) products. Moreover, Saudi Arabian government is taking number of initiatives to improve the healthcare sector in the country. For instance, Under Vision 2030, the Saudi Arabian Government plans to invest over US$ 65 Billion to develop the country’s healthcare infrastructure. The government has set the target of privatizing 290 hospitals and 2,300 primary health centers by 2030. Furthermore, the government seeks to improve the country’s healthcare sector by adopting digital information systems.
