Europe holds the second largest share in the global preclinical trial outsourcing market owing to the presence of major biopharmaceutical companies such as F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd, and Novartis in this region.

As preclinical testing is generally conducted in proximity to central drug development centers, outsourcing preclinical trial services to local CROs present in the region is expected to increase, which is expected to further contribute to the growth of preclinical trial outsourcing in this region.

In addition, a large number of CROs specializing in early drug discovery, such as Charles River Laboratories and LabCorp, have their centers in European countries like the UK, Germany, and France, which is expected to contribute to market growth in this region.
