Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--The North American Pharmaceutical & Biotech Industry reported tremendous growth in capital construction during the 2021 calendar year. The COVID-19 pandemic brought the life science industry to the fore, driven by supply chain issues, the "reshoring" of production, the need for new therapeutics and research and development (R&D) spending, among other factors.

The North American life science industry has seen almost 600 major capital project construction starts in 2021, with a total investment value (TIV) of more than $30 billion.
