This region is anticipated to witness steady growth over the forecast period owing to the growing market for biopharmaceuticals, untapped opportunities pertinent to the entire clinical trial cycle, and a rise in supportive government initiatives. The lack of coordinated PV systems and the increasing need for efficient ADR reporting systems are positively impacting the overall market in this region.

This is a result of illicit drug consumption, lack of stringent regulatory framework, and low awareness. The establishment of PV organizations, such as the International Society of PV (ISoP), to strengthen PV activities and promote awareness regarding patient safety, is also anticipated to increase growth potential in this region.

An increase in regulatory collaborations is also a driver for the regional market. For instance, Middle East Regulatory Network (MERN) and Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) partnered to develop regulatory practices for enabling quality drug development and drug safety monitoring.
