If you live in the Bay Area, hang out around Union Square in SF this week and strike up conversations with the people in suits hanging around in the hotel lobbies / coffee shops / bars. This week is the JP Morgan healthcare conference, the biggest healthcare investor conference in the world (with a strong emphasis on biopharma), and a great chance to learn more about biopharma
I personally believe that biopharma is the most interesting sector for entrepreneurs right now, and am currently writing a blog post to explain why (hope to publish it tonight or tomorrow). If interested, I can link it here once I'm finished.
One data point of interest: in the first four days of this year, biopharma startups raised a total of $1B (compare this to the $1.9B raised by AR/VR startups in all of 2016). this was across 16 companies. $673M of this was Series A rounds (in 9 companies)
