In my opinion, there's a limit to the market size that can be satisfied by insular startups. SV is big enough that there's always another startup doing a bunch of the same things in another region. This happens all the…
And though the idea is tricky, commercializing our genome is no longer about "hey, the next R&D breakthrough will come from your genome." It's about making sure that the first humans to create such breakthroughs can get…
