Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines a large sample of venture investments in public equities (VIPEs) in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry over the period 1995-2014. The results of the study are threefold. First, and contrary to widely held beliefs, there has been no significant increase in the number of VIPEs over time. In fact, both in terms of dollar amount as well as the number of VIPE transactions have actually went down post the record year in 2009. Second, this study documents that returns profiles from the public venture capital market share many similarities to the returns in the private VC market: few big winners, but overall a high loss rate. Approximately seven investments out of ten in public firms generate a loss. Third, the analysis of private investments in public equities shows that venture capitalists outperform other competitors, such as hedge funds and mutual funds. From a management perspective, venture investments in public equity provide several benefits including providing an additional source of potential funding, aligning the investment horizon of venture capitalists with other long-term investors, certifying the quality of the firm and contributing to the long-term success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preserving the Promise: Improving the Culture of Biotech Investment critically examines why most biotech startups fail, as they emerge from universities into an ecosystem that inhibits rather than encourages innovation. This "Valley of Death" squanders our public investments in medical research and with them, the promise of longer and healthier lives. The authors explicate the Translation Gap faced by early stage biotech companies, the result of problematic technology transfer and investment practices, and provide specific prescriptions for improving translation of important discoveries into safe and effective therapies. In Preserving the Promise, Dessain and Fishman build on their collective experience as company founders, healthcare investor (Fishman) and physician/scientist (Dessain). The book offers a forward-looking, critical analysis of "conventional wisdom" that encumbers commercialization practices. It exposes the self-defeating habits of drug development in the Valley of Death, that waste money and extinguish innovative technologies through distorted financial incentives. Explains why translation of biotech discovery into medicine succeeds so infrequently that it’s been dubbed the Valley of Death Uncovers specific decision-making strategies that more effectively align incentives, improving clinical and financial outcomes for investors, inventor/entrepreneurs, and patients Examines the critical, early stages of commercialization, where technology transfer offices and Angels act as gatekeepers to development, and where tension between short-term financial and long-term clinical aspirations sinks important technologies Deconstructs the forces driving biotech, recasts them in a proven conceptual framework, and offers practical guidance for making the system better
