Synthetic biology is experiencing rapid growth and commercialization in the second decade of the 21st century, after an earlier groundbreaking technological innovation and initial exploration of commercialization. This paper combs and analyzes the current situation of global synthetic biology industry from three aspects: market scale, industry financing and industry development. The analysis shows, in terms of market scale, the synthetic biology market is growing rapidly, but there is an obvious gap in its scale in different geographical regions and industrial fields; in terms of industry financing, the investment and financing trend of synthetic biology industry shows an obvious upward trend. In 2020, the number and amount of investment and financing events in synthetic biology industry reached a historical record, but the development between different geographical regions is still unbalanced; in terms of industry development, the landing application scenarios of synthetic biology are very diverse, have taken root in all walks of life, and show great application potential.
