I arrived days after horrible fires in the Carmel forest and in the thick of two days of the worst wind storm in the history of the Jewish state. Power was lost and quickly restored with typical Israeli aplomb and matter of factness. Then (when I wasn't shopping with my son Zach) I participated in the Fourth Annual Health Care Technological Innovation program for Israeli life science entrepreneurs along with CMPI board members Gad Berdugo and Steve Sammut and former FDA official, all around great guy Dan Schultz and this year's CMPI Odyssey Award winner, Frank Douglas. The takeaway from the meeting: precompetitive collaboration, personalized medicine and the enduring value of innovation, even in the face of a complex FDA regulatory environment. Frank and I went to the National Institute for Biotechnology of the Negev for a two hour presentation that demonstrated again Israel's astonishing contribution to personalized and predictive medicine. From Tel Aviv and back I learned more about commercialization and innovation from Frank Douglas than I had in the past decade.
