Top 8 Innovative Life Science Startups in Mexico

Mexico is the fifth most biodiverse region in the world and has observed an increasing focus on life science research in recent years.

According to the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI), "Mexico is Latin America's second-largest market for pharmaceuticals and medical devices (after Brazil). Large pharmaceutical companies are located in Mexico, which has positioned the country as one of the main manufacturing centers worldwide. Currently, 20 of the 25 largest pharmaceutical companies in the world have operations in Mexico."


With a rich life science ecosystem, the country has seen an emergence of life science startups. Our research suggests that about 200 biotech companies develop or use biotechnology in Mexico with a wide range of commercial focus, from human health and plant health to food science and environmental science.


Below is a list of top 8 innovative life science picked by the Scispot team:

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
