South Africa genome editing market is majorly driven by continuous efforts undertaken by researchers of various academic institutions and laboratories, to expand awareness and knowledge about genome editing technologies.

For instance, in November 2019, the South African Medical Research Council (SAMRC) and the faculty of health science of the University of Witwatersrand conducted the first South African conference on gene editing to discuss the ethical & legal issues of genome editing and share appropriate &relevant recommendations.

Growing interest in gene editing technologies has been stimulated by the expanding gene therapy market, contributing to its growth. In South Africa, research into somatic cell gene therapy, which includes gene editing technologies, is primarily directed towards addressing prevalent disorders such as hepatitis B, HIV, cancer, and tuberculosis.
