Here are 3-5 expected drivers of future revenue growth for IQVIA (IQV) over the next 2-3 years:

1. Expansion of Technology & Analytics Solutions (TAS) driven by Artificial Intelligence (AI): IQVIA's Technology & Analytics Solutions segment is a significant growth engine, with Q2 2025 revenue increasing by 8.9% year-over-year and Q3 2025 revenue growing by 5.0% on a reported basis. The company is strategically investing in AI, having deployed over 50 NVIDIA-built AI agents in Q2 2025 to accelerate drug discovery and healthcare professional engagement workflows, with plans to expand to 500 specialized agents by 2027. This focus positions IQVIA favorably in the rapidly growing healthcare AI market, projected to exceed $100 billion by 2030, where it already holds a 33.02% market share in global health analytics.

2. Growth in Research & Development (R&D) Solutions fueled by strong demand and backlog: The R&D Solutions segment continues to be a core driver, with Q3 2025 revenue growing by 4.5% on a reported basis. The company reported robust net bookings of $2.6 billion in Q3 2025, resulting in a book-to-bill ratio of 1.15x, and a record contracted backlog of $32.4 billion, reflecting a 4.1% year-over-year increase. This substantial backlog provides strong future revenue visibility. The broader Contract Research Organization (CRO) market, in which IQVIA is a major player, is anticipated to grow at a 7.42% Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) between 2024 and 2033, creating significant opportunities for IQVIA's comprehensive clinical research services.

3. Increased Adoption of Contract Sales & Medical Solutions (CSMS): IQVIA's Contract Sales & Medical Solutions segment demonstrated strong performance, with Q3 2025 revenue increasing by 16.1% on a reported basis. This growth is partly attributed to acquisitions and reflects a broader trend of pharmaceutical firms outsourcing their sales and medical solutions. IQVIA's CSMS offerings provide cost-effective ways for clients to manage workloads and access new capabilities, leveraging targeted market data to expand sales reach and market penetration.

4. Strategic Acquisitions and Global Market Expansion: IQVIA's growth strategy includes strategic business combinations and expanding its global footprint. Acquisitions contributed approximately 1.5 percentage points to the company's revenue growth in Q3 2025. An increase in goodwill on its balance sheet from $14.7 billion at the end of 2024 to $15.9 billion by September 2025 indicates active acquisition strategies. Furthermore, expanding into emerging markets is a key part of the company's future prospects, capitalizing on increasing healthcare spending and the growing clinical trial landscape in these regions.

5. Leveraging New Drug Launches and Broader Pharma Industry Growth: The pharmaceutical industry continues to see robust innovation and new drug launches, which directly benefits IQVIA's diverse service offerings. Global spending on medicines is projected to grow at around 7% per year, reaching $2.2 trillion by 2028, driven by specialty medicines and ongoing innovation. Biotech is a significant contributor to this growth, representing an increasing proportion of new product launches. Specific therapeutic areas like oncology, obesity, central nervous system (CNS) disorders, and mental health are expected to experience substantial growth in the coming years.
