                The field of biotechnology is characterized  by rapid advancements and breakthrough innovations. This dynamism poses unique  challenges. The need to keep up with technological advancements, regulatory  requirements, and shifting market dynamics demands substantial financial  commitments and a forward-thinking approach. Although investment in advanced  therapies has reached a record high of over $20 billion/year in 2020 and  2021, venture capital investment in biotech declined by 30-40% in 2022. Given  the sector’s strategic importance, the European Investment Bank (EIB) is  committed to playing a major role in developing a resilient and zero-emission  biotechnology and bioproduction industry. The Bank is supporting the field with  a holistic approach across the entire value chain, from raw material supply to  research, development and bioproduction. The EU bank is the biggest venture  debt provider to the life sciences sector in Europe with a portfolio of over  €2.7 billion, supporting more than 100 innovative companies, almost  half of which are in the biotechnology space.
