The click chemistry segment is expected to grow the fastest from 2025 to 2034 due to its efficiency and specificity, essential for drug discovery and targeted drug delivery.

Regarding biomolecule types, the antibodies segment had the largest revenue share in 2024, fueled by the adoption of ADCs in cancer therapy. The growing appetite for precision medicine and immunotherapy has increased the use of antibodies in drug development. Improved bioconjugation techniques that enhance antibody stability and specificity have broadened their therapeutic uses. Additionally, rising investments in biologics and growing applications in diagnostics and biomarker detection underpin the segment's market leadership. The oligonucleotides segment is anticipated to grow at the highest rate from 2025 to 2034, driven by applications in gene therapy, molecular diagnostics, and targeted drug delivery. The increasing need for RNA-based therapeutics, including mRNA vaccines, is propelling this growth. Enhanced bioconjugation techniques are improving the stability, specificity, and delivery of oligonucleotide-based therapies. Growing investments in genomics research and the expanding role of nucleic acid diagnostics in personalized medicine are also accelerating this segment's expansion

In 2024, the therapeutics segment dominated the market with the largest revenue share due to the growing use of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), targeted drug delivery systems, and precision medicine. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, especially cancer, has raised the demand for advanced bioconjugation therapies. Innovations in linker technologies, site-specific conjugation, and research and development in biopharmaceuticals have further boosted this segment. Additionally, investments from pharmaceutical and biotech companies, along with regulatory support for new biologics, have sped up the development of bioconjugation-based therapies. The diagnostics segment is expected to grow the fastest from 2025 to 2034, driven by the demand for advanced biomarker detection and rapid diagnostic solutions, alongside a rise in infectious diseases and cancer diagnostics.

In 2024, the pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies segment led the market with the highest revenue, largely due to increased funding in drug discovery and advancements in therapies. The demand for antibody-drug conjugates, nucleic acid therapies, and precision medicine has driven the use of bioconjugation technologies. Improvements in linker chemistry have also boosted drug effectiveness. Collaborations and mergers among firms have fueled innovation. In contrast, the CROs and CMOs segment is expected to grow the fastest as more bioconjugation services are outsourced. This segment is supported by rising research costs and the need for specialized skills, making it crucial in the bioconjugation field.

In 2024, North America led the bioconjugation market, holding the largest share of revenue, which can be attributed to robust R&D investments, a well-established biopharmaceutical industry, and a growing need for bioconjugation services.
