Ira Pastor Comments:
On several recent shows we’ve been discussing some of the novel, alternative funding pools that have been emerging in and around the biotech space, specifically related to some of the unmet medical needs of which we have been focusing on, on the ideaXme show, particularly related to the age-tech and longevity biotech fronts.
We have had guests join us from both the $125 Million Healthy Ageing Challenge program of UKRI (UK Research and Innovation)and the US$30 Million Healthy Longevity Global Grand Challenge of the U.S. National Academy of Medicine. We’ve have also talked to folks at the XPrize Foundation, specifically related to their upcoming inducement prize contest for therapeutics for the diseases of aging.
However, today we are going to get back to back to basics; “Back to the street” as they say, to Wall Street, where the majority of the big action and big deals occur.
Fred Frank
I’m honored to be joined this morning by Mr. Fred Frank.
