While the concepts of gene therapy and cell therapy have been investigated for decades, there were major challenges in the early years. Through incremental progress, and the gradual introduction of enabling tools such as CRISPR and next-generation sequencing (NGS), cell and gene therapy has emerged into a highly active area. There are now many approved therapies with proven track records.
As the technologies have lowered the barriers to entry for the industry, over 1,500 therapy or tools companies have been created or have become involved in this field.
This report, Kalorama's “Cell and Gene Therapy Funding and Deals Analysis: Financings, Partnering, M&A, Tech Transfers, IPOs/SPACs, Other Deals, 2021-2023”, tracks the dealmaking activities in cell and gene therapy since 2021. The report provides informative graphs of quarterly trends from 2021-2023, and also includes the specific details of over 2,000 deals covering the Q1 2022-Q3 2023 period.
