Ep. 213 - Life Sciences Investing is an Exercise in Problem Solving with David Sable, Portfolio Manager at Special Situations Fund

For this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with David Sable, Portfolio Manager at Special Situations Fund, and Professor at Columbia University teaching the course "Entrepreneurship in Biotechnology." I became aware of David when he gave a presentation at Ian and Mike's MicroCapClub Leadership Summit I think 1-2 years ago, and have been a fan ever since. Life Sciences, healthcare, biotech, medtech make up a huge portion of Small, Micro and Nano-cap companies, and while most are pre-revenue, early-stage in the clinic, that doesn't necessarily mean that every one of those opportunities are for the Doctors and experts. Sure, you need some basic understanding of statistics, but as you'll come to learn during the course of my chat with David, that can be acquired and put to good use. As David expresses multiple times throughout our chat, investing in Life Sciences and Healthcare, is an exercise in problem solving, and I really enjoyed learning more about how to apply that simple concept in an area I always thought you needed 8 years of medical school to understand.
