Celebrating #EarthWeek at the White House! RA Capital Management’s General Counsel Sarah Reed and I were thrilled to be involved in the development of the US-BOLT (University Startup Basic-Out-Licensing) term sheet for climate-related startups spinning out of universities. The goal of the work is to make it easier for universities and start-up companies to collaborate on the commercialization of game-changing technologies. Together with the work group led by Orin Herskowitz, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy celebrated the completion of this effort with fellow professionals, policymakers, and innovators, all dedicated to driving positive change for our planet. We are excited to have the US-BOLT Climate term sheet now available to the community on the NVCA website here: https://lnkd.in/e5hsXfQw Joshua Posamentier (Congruent); Manny Stockman and Kirsten Leute (OUP); Gabriel Kra and Carly Anderson (Prelude); Christina Karapataki (Breakthrough Energy Ventures); Orin Herskowitz and Dovina Qu (Columbia); Case Cortese and Rosemary Kiser (Caltech); Deirdre Zammit (MIT); Jordan Grant and Sam Liss (Harvard); Fiona Wills (University of Washington); Jonathan Gortat, MBA, CLP (Stanford); Anthony Williams (Princeton); Laleh Shayesteh (Berkeley); Geoffrey Spolyar (Cooley); Sarah A.

Thank you, Kendalle Burlin O'Connell, Esq. and the MassBio team for convening such an inspirational and informative day #StateOfPossible2024! I was honored to speak with an engaged audience about how Massachusetts can lengthen its lead as the center of biomedical innovation by inspiring “fans” with our quests to develop new therapies and being a model for insurance reform. Great messages from my fellow speakers including Governor Maura Healey, Congressman Jake Auchincloss, Biotechnology Innovation Organization John F. Crowley, Reshma Kewalramani, MD FASN, CEO of Vertex Pharmaceuticals, and former NFL player and advocate Devin McCourty. Together, we make Massachusetts the state where innovation happens! #biomedicalinnovation #biotech #massbio #stateofpossible #creatingfans RA Capital Management Peter Kolchinsky

His major research interests include the engineering, evolution, and in vivo delivery of genome editing agents to study and treat genetic diseases; the evolution of novel therapeutic proteins using phage-assisted continuous evolution (PACE); and the discovery of bioactive synthetic molecules using DNA-templated organic synthesis and DNA-encoded libraries. As a business leader, he has successfully launched, led and scaled companies and products in the #healthcare space.

Hat tip to RA Capital Management's visionary GC Sarah Reed, who saw an innovation bottleneck in startup documentation and standardization back in the early aughts and convened stakeholders to create a new industry standard. The National Venture Capital Association model docs she created and put out to the world in December 2003 have changed the way the industry works - but don’t just take our word for it. A recent study by Stanford Law Professor Robert Bartlett showed NVCA model doc usage related to issuing charters connected to startup Series A financings rose from 3% in 2004 to nearly 85% in 2022. Sarah Reed’s work to set the standard for standardization is one reason why The Deal's David Marcus wrote last week in “Save the Money for the Company: Standardizing VC Contracts” that those model docs are “one of the great achievements in American corporate law in this century.” They “streamlined the legal work involved in early-stage startups and allowed for the evolution of more complex financing structures." Go Sarah! At RA Capital, we all try to improve everything... board governance, IPO process, the Inflation Reduction Act, insurance reform, healthcare economics literacy, and standardized legal documents… because we believe everything can be improved. Are you an entrepreneur driven to fix something about the world and looking to work with like-minded people? Reach out!
