The Future of mRNA Is Being Built in APAC
Beyond scientific advancement, mRNA represents a strategic opportunity shaped by policy stability, public investment and regional collaboration. Across APAC, governments are increasingly recognising that supportive regulatory frameworks and long-term funding can serve as powerful competitive advantages, attracting global capital and talent. While political dynamics in the United States have slowed momentum, experts emphasise that the science underpinning mRNA technology remains sound. To fully realise its potential, the region will need greater coordination across borders, including regulatory harmonisation and joint development pathways, to build a resilient mRNA ecosystem capable of addressing shared health challenges and driving long-term innovation.
