One thing that businesses and people have in common is that they both have a lifecycle. Similar to all human beings, startups are born, develop into mature entities, and eventually experience a decline. But, like the old human enigma, companies also don't want to die, even if their value has fallen dramatically to the consumer. To escape such a decline, companies usually put plastic surgery over their production bodies and try to accelerate their growth. Now, to transform it's present role and in order to seek value from customers, they need to pore a lot more money on plastic surgery—I mean, in the firm's production and growth. But, most interestingly, every startup has a lifespan; after that lifespan, they lose their value and fall down, and most of the starters who start their venture mostly fail to predict their lifetime. That's the reason why 90% of the total startups end up in bankruptcy; all they get is nothing but criticism, major mental unrest, and lifetime regret. So, though we see a lot of startups build on and get the pick, we need to reconsider our idea to jump into start-ups so fast like others. Sure, we may enter into it, but with some clarification and calculated risk.

Med Tech in Focus   Rotator Cuff Surgery Success Improved by Device Inspired by Python Teeth Engineers at Columbia University designed a device that mimics the backward curve of python teeth that nearly doubles repair strength in tendon-to-bone shoulder surgery. The device is made of biocompatible resin teeth set on a curved base. The sharp teeth are half the length of currently used staples, so they won’t break through the tendon and cause suture pull-through. The base can be customized to match a patient’s curvature of the tendon attachment site. Currently, successful reattachment is fraught with high failure rates estimated at 20% for younger patients with minor tears to 94% in elderly patients with massive tears. Most of the failures are the result of suture pull-through. It is estimated that about 600,000 rotator cuff surgeries are performed in the US annually at a cost of $3 billion. The engineers are now researching a bioabsorbable version that would dissolve when the tendon heals and reattaches back to the bone. VC Investors are always adjusting their "Play Book" with a variety of options for investing. Mikal Ventures is one of those alternatives, offering curated solutions to real world problems.
