Executive Summary and Europe Contract Research Organization (CRO) Market Analysis:

The Europe Contract Research Organization (CRO) market growth is propelling due to the number of clinical trials, the presence of prominent players with the adoption of inorganic strategies, and the rapid demand for outsourced research services from pharmaceutical and biotech companies. Some of the major growth segments in the sector are clinical research, which accounts for most of the revenue, and preclinical services. Under preclinical services, some of the areas like toxicology, bioanalysis, and DMPK studies are growing very fast. Some of the major therapeutic areas that are driving the demand are oncology, chronic diseases (e.g., cardiovascular disorders), and rare diseases. Regulatory environments are changing; for instance, the EU Clinical Trials Regulation and centralized platforms such as the Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS) are making the approval process simpler and more transparent. Moreover, the use of technology-such as digital platforms, decentralized clinical trials, and analytics-helps Contract Research Organizations (CROs) become more efficient. There are still challenges. These are pricing pressure due to heightened competition, regulatory complexity, and a lack of professionals. Small CROs can struggle to sustain reasonable profit margins when large firms take advantage of economies of scale.

Market Report ScopeEurope Contract Research Organization (CRO) Market Outlook

According to the European Medicines Agency, in the European Union (EU), ~4,000 clinical trials are authorized annually, of which about 60% of clinical trials are associated with the pharmaceutical industry. An increasing number of clinical trials for developing different effective treatments due to the rising prevalence of chronic diseases globally is fueling the growth of the global CRO market. With bigger sample sizes, diversified patient demographics, and multiple study sites, clinical trials are becoming more complex.

Managing the various aspects of trials, from oncology research to vaccine development, can overwhelm sponsors. CROs enhance trial efficiency and productivity while handling day-to-day research activities that may be impractical or costly for drug developers to conduct in-house, including trial design, bioanalytical testing, and regulatory consultation. The growing investments and collaborations by market players to enhance clinical trials are fueling the growth of the market. In February 2025, the Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS) and Fortrea, a leading CRO, announced that Fortrea will sponsor the SCRS Collaborate Forward working group to enhance collaboration in clinical research. This group, made up of 16 global impact partner organizations, aims to reduce administrative burdens in clinical research by developing best practices. Their focus is on enhancing transparency and collaboration to improve site sustainability and trial efficiency, ultimately benefiting patients.
The growing need for effective treatments and increasing research activity drives the global rise in clinical trials. With more complex study designs, larger sample sizes, and diverse patient demographics, managing clinical trials has become more challenging. Contract Research Organizations (CROs) are playing a critical role in streamlining trial processes and reducing operational costs. Industry collaborations are also enhancing efficiency, transparency, and sustainability in research. As a result, the demand for CRO services is expected to continue growing significantly in the coming years

Research Methodology

Once we receive the confirmation from primary research sources or primary respondents, we finalize the base year market estimation and forecast the data as per the macroeconomic and microeconomic factors assessed during data collection.

  1. Data Analysis:

Once data is validated through both secondary as well as primary respondents, we finalize the market estimations by hypothesis formulation and factor analysis at regional and country level.

  • 3.1 Macro-Economic Factor Analysis:

We analyse macroeconomic indicators such the gross domestic product (GDP), increase in the demand for goods and services across industries, technological advancement, regional economic growth, governmental policies, the influence of COVID-19, PEST analysis, and other aspects. This analysis aids in setting benchmarks for various nations/regions and approximating market splits. Additionally, the general trend of the aforementioned components aid in determining the market's development possibilities.

  • 3.2 Country Level Data:

Various factors that are especially aligned to the country are taken into account to determine the market size for a certain area and country, including the presence of vendors, such as headquarters and offices, the country's GDP, demand patterns, and industry growth. To comprehend the market dynamics for the nation, a number of growth variables, inhibitors, application areas, and current market trends are researched. The aforementioned elements aid in determining the country's overall market's growth potential.

  • 3.3 Company Profile:

The “Table of Contents” is formulated by listing and analyzing more than 25 - 30 companies operating in the market ecosystem across geographies. However, we profile only 10 companies as a standard practice in our syndicate reports. These 10 companies comprise leading, emerging, and regional players. Nonetheless, our analysis is not restricted to the 10 listed companies, we also analyze other companies present in the market to develop a holistic view and understand the prevailing trends. The “Company Profiles” section in the report covers key facts, business description, products & services, financial information, SWOT analysis, and key developments. The financial information presented is extracted from the annual reports and official documents of the publicly listed companies. Upon collecting the information for the sections of respective companies, we verify them via various primary sources and then compile the data in respective company profiles. The company level information helps us in deriving the base number as well as in forecasting the market size.

  • 3.4 Developing Base Number:

Aggregation of sales statistics (2020-2022) and macro-economic factor, and other secondary and primary research insights are utilized to arrive at base number and related market shares for 2022. The data gaps are identified in this step and relevant market data is analyzed, collected from paid primary interviews or databases. On finalizing the base year market size, forecasts are developed on the basis of macro-economic, industry and market growth factors and company level analysis.

  1. Data Triangulation and Final Review:

The market findings and base year market size calculations are validated from supply as well as demand side. Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries. In case of supply side validations, revenues of major companies are estimated (in case not available) based on industry benchmark, approximate number of employees, product portfolio, and primary interviews revenues are gathered. Further revenue from target product/service segment is assessed to avoid overshooting of market statistics. In case of heavy deviations between supply and demand side values, all thes steps are repeated to achieve synchronization.

We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.

We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.
