They had their portfolio on display and it was impressive. Their list of partners was mind-blowing. All that information was removed from their site a week after they partnered with Genenews.
They probably got inundated with emails regarding the partnership.
There are many LifeX board members that head their own Angel Foundation capital investment companies and that is where we fit like a soft leather glove. Angel foundations specialize in incubating small disruptive companies.
they have 2 goals in mind. 1 is to make a boatload of money and 2 is to fund small companies that will make a difference in the world for the better of the world.
My past posts on the subject included images of these foundation logos but now Stockhouse does not allow HTTP attached images. They have to be HTTPS (secure). So all those images were whipped clean and don't exist.
The point I'm eventually going to make is this.
We don't know what Tripp is up to. He is supposed to rent office space at the LifeX HQ where he can schmooze all day with these angel foundation people. He will get to meet with the monster capital investors involved with LifeX and UPMC.
Has he attended any conferences like JP Morgan and captured the attention of some big suits?
We don't know these things. Are they getting involved and stirring up the pot lately?
LifeX is by far the biggest plus for Tripp. Could it be that Genenews is the biggest plus for LifeX?
They never posted Genenews on their portfolio. Were they waiting for our new re-branding and name change?
There are many variables at play and most are unknown to investors... Welcome to Genenews investing. Same as it ever was.
Below are a few postings from Aug / Sept 2018 when we got the LifeX news. My head exploded as I researched them so please forgive my enthusiasm.
Like I said, there is much less to see now unless you really really really dig... And I'm too old for this sh!t (imagine a meme posted here featuring Danny Glover) SH won't allow it.

We have to have patience.
So far, AIM and LifeX are casting a bit of light on Tripp's direction.
We will be introduced to Angel foundations, huge capital venture investors and a large variety of companies geared to get us noticed.
The present state of affairs for Genenews will not look the same after James is done lining things up.
We have to wait. James will make Aristotle shine to the world, at the end, when the time is right.
That's why the punch line comes at the end of the joke, the cliffhanger is at the end of the season and the climax always gets revealed at the end of the movie.
Holy crapp, the kid's not crazy, he does see dead people... And Bruce is friggin' dead.

They have a marketing company, financial investors, promotional firm, monster partners who can buy you out if you happen to invent something they like, they have scientists to help with validation of products and tests as long as you have 'proof of concept' which we have.
This is from their site... Exceptional start-up companies are invited to move their operations to our Pittsburgh HQ. Here, companies realize their vision, hone their skills and gather momentum to bring their product to the market place.
ALSO...
Every start-up considered for the LifeX Labs goes through a thorough evaluation process. We look at proof-of-concept data and ensure the resulting product fulfills a significant unmet health need. We're looking for groundbreaking ideas that have the potential to meet a global unmet health need.
Some team members are or were members of angel foundations so are some of the monster partners. These are non-profit foundations that help companies develop products for the good of the planet. Does that not sound like us?

Looking up some companies associated with LifeX. Under TEAM on the LifeX site, we can find a list of 'investors in our portfolio and team'.
Right away, everybody zooms in on the obvious monsters. Pfizer and Mayo Clinic.
if you check out JLABS, it is actually another monster mofu. What the fawk!!! Johnson & Johnson's innovation program.
They are helping out over 350 small biotech, therapeutic and pharmaceutical companies get off the ground. I've checked most of these companies and few of them seem to match the potential we can deliver. So JLABS is another nice fit to our company.
Next to check up on is a dinky company named KPCB... What the fawk!!!
Kleiner Perkins, formerly Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers (KPCB), is an American venture capital firm headquartered on Sand Hill Road in Menlo Park in Silicon Valley.
Some of the companies they helped out? Here are a few from their alumni. You might know some of them.
Google, Amazon, AOL, Lotus, Netscape, Spotify, SUN microsystems, Twitter, just to name a few. So please insert WTF here( ).
Oops, I forgot a few.
Facebook, Compaq, Lifelock, Oakley.
Good connection to have at our disposal? I believe I need some new pants.
Next is Sequoia Capital (tabarnak) I mean what the fawk!!!
iSequoia Capital is an American venture capital firm. The firm is located in Menlo Park, California and mainly focuses on the technology industry. Since 1972, they have partnered early and at every stage of growth with the founders of companies that now have an aggregate, public market value of over $3.3 trillion. Who did they help start up?
AirBnN, Apple, Atari, Cisco, Guardant Health, Google, KAYAK, Oracle, PayPal, Tumblr, Youtube, Zoom.
The friggin' list goes on.
Next is Life Technologies...Life Technologies was acquired by Thermo Fisher Scientific in January, 2014. Our innovative life science, applied science, and clinical products are now found under the Applied Biosystems, Invitrogen, Gibco, Ion Torrent, and Molecular Probes brands.
I have to quit now for beddy-bye but feel free to explore.
There is so much DD to do on LifeX.
