Following a $59.7 billion record-breaking year, med-tech financings in 2021 have already raised 56% more than the amount recorded during the pre-pandemic early weeks of 2020.
Biopharma financings have done it again. Breaking all kinds of records in January, the year appears to be off to an extraordinary start. The industry raised $10.15 billion during the month through a total of 158 financings. This represents a significant climb above the previous records, according to BioWorld data going back to the year 2000.
While the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research met all action dates for the 53 new molecular entities approved in 2020, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, developers of at least 8 drugs continue to wait for a decision beyond their expected timelines.
