Summary and extracts
1 Market overview
1.1 Definition and scope of study
Veterinarians are responsible for advising professionals and private individuals on the health of their animals. They usually work in veterinary clinics or veterinary centers. They perform a wide range of tasks, from diagnostics to major operations on pets, livestock and equines. However, pets account for the majority of animals treated.
The European market for the veterinary sector is growing rapidly, reaching 17 billion by 2020. [Eurostat]
This growth is also being felt in France, with the veterinary services market increasing by 61% between 2013 and 2022, to represent almost 5 billion euros in 2022.[Insee]. Fortunately, this high demand is offset by an ever-increasing number of establishments and professionals. In 2022, theOrdre National des Vétérinaires will register 20,844 veterinarians.
In parallel, the French software publishing market, amounted to 14.3 billion euros in 2022, having also almost doubled since 2012. This growth has been driven by the growth of SaaS (Software as a Service), the sector's resilience to the health crisis and an overall trend towards increased IT spending.[Insee]
Thus, in a global context of expanding software and applications, the intensification of demand for veterinary care has driven the growth of software and applications for veterinarians, enabling improved and centralized management of veterinary care.this has led to the growth of software and applications for veterinarians, enabling improved , centralized management of practitioners' activities (as part of comprehensive management software), or providing specialized support for certain aspects of the profession (as part of more specific applications).
Software and applications for veterinarians are becoming increasingly essential to support the digitization of customer relations and loyalty. The arrival of the Calypso platform in March 2023 is a further confirmation of this digitalization trend.
