Kauffman Foundation Announces Grant to Startup Genome to Grow and Study World’s Largest Maps of Local Entrepreneur …

Posted: September 16, 2013 at 2:41 pm

Kansas City, Mo. (PRWEB) September 16, 2013

What are the fastest growing start-ups in my city? Which of them are hiring? Who are the founders and investors in my industry that I should meet given the stage Im at in my entrepreneurial journey?

These are the questions local entrepreneurs and city leaders often ask, and finding the correct answers can be time-consuming, if not impossible. The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation today announced a grant to an organization that has a tool to help them find the answers. Startup Genome is a worldwide network of volunteer curators who create up-to-date and accurate maps of the entrepreneurial communities in which they live and work. Kauffmans grant will support and accelerate Startup Genomes ability to build its database and collect and evaluate data.

Mapping local start-up ecosystems not only provides an important tool to communities, but it will create a treasure trove of rare data on local start-ups, said Dane Stangler, director of Research and Policy at the Kauffman Foundation. Our plans include studying how start-up communities develop and identify action steps that cities can take to grow their entrepreneurial community and measure their progress.

Startup Genome enables entrepreneurs and investors to plug into their city's start-up scene, which has untold benefits to them and their local economies, said Thom Ruhe, vice president of Entrepreneurship at the Kauffman Foundation. So everyone wins when communities gain a better understanding of their city's entrepreneurial climate.

Startup Genomes goal is to recruit 1,000 local curators who will populate start-up community data in their citys maps. Currently, 332 curators are curating maps in 271 cities and 57 countries. So far they've collected data on more than 26,000 founders, 84,000 startups, 5,800 investors and more than 18,000 deals. Curators can be entrepreneurs, investors, accelerator program managers, Startup Weekend organizers, community builders, students, journalists and more.

Working with the Kauffman Foundation will help us toward our long-term vision to build the deepest, most accurate database of start-up companies and entrepreneurs in the world, said Shane Reiser, founder of Startup Genome. Kauffmans research team will enable us to leverage that data to help organizations and cities measure their impact and identify ways to grow, and to share the data openly so that anyone can use it to build useful tools for entrepreneurs.

Startup Genome launched a new website last week at http://www.startupgenome.com with improved searches, speed, curator tools; updated statistics and industry pages; and responsive design for mobile phones. The site will continue to develop data automation tools, integrations and partnerships with other online sources such as CrunchBase, Angel List and LinkedIn.

PharmaPoint: Psoriasis – India Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022

Posted: at 2:41 pm

London (PRWEB) September 16, 2013

PharmaPoint: Psoriasis - India Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022

Summary

GlobalData has released its new Country report, PharmaPoint: Psoriasis - India Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022. There are no long-term effective therapies for Psoriasis (PsO), so this remains at the top of the list for unmet needs. While physicians agree that biologics are relatively safe and effective, these therapies are still lacking because of their immunosuppressant nature and lack of understanding as to their exact mechanism of action.

GlobalData is following during this forecast will likely not launch in India. However, the domestic company, Biocon, has developed and gained approval for the biologic Alzumab. In January 2013, this CD6 suppressant gained Indian drug approva, but will not launch until late Q3/early Q4, according to Biocon. Since Alzumab is an IV formulation, we expect it to be priced similarly to Remicade. This therapy will provide PsO patients a suitable option for symptom relief. Therefore, its uptake will provide additional revenue to the Indian PsO market.
