Our industry’s innovation is alive and well! Thanks to the Kansas City Animal Health Corridor for another fine Investment Forum. What a great opportunity to see old friends and colleagues and make new ones. We joke about two degrees of separation in our industry, but it’s a reality. For veterans to see talented and committed new faces along with the energy and fresh perspectives they bring is reassuring and uplifting. It bodes well for our industry.
I saw an array of innovation. From emerging companies ranging in products and services from sea life to pest control, oral hygiene to virus prevention, supply chain to block chain, and oncology to delivery mechanisms, I witnessed a slew of fine ideas finely presented.
I see new products and services that would have been unimaginable just a few years ago. Along with dedicated corporate R&D teams, universities, startups, and clever entrepreneurs are fueling innovation, often assisted by financial and strategic partnerships.
We congratulate the presenters and thank our hosts and look forward to upcoming meetings and the innovation and growth they bring. Whether you seek assistance with development, partnering, or commercialization, or whether you need to find that top talent to supercharge your organization, Brakke Consulting can help.
