In this case study, a global bio-refined speciality chemicals company engaged CPL Business Consultants to determine the potential opportunities in betulin derivatives, with a particular focus on betulinic acid and lupeol. CPL provided a ‘snapshot’ of the main characteristics of the current or potential industries and markets for betulin derivatives. In addition, CPL identified opportunities, supply chain structure and potential partners in the most appropriate market sectors.
Following an analysis of the market potential for betulin derivatives, betulinic acid and lupeol, we estimated the likely size and scope of the opportunities. We also identified the barriers to entry and success factors for supplying plant/tree-derived bioactive chemicals into markets such as pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, dietary supplements and cosmetics. CPL identified which opportunities were likely to have the most potential and also the most suitable partners to access those opportunities.
