| kanzure | yashgaroth: hi. | 17:54 |
| yashgaroth | yo | 17:54 |
| kanzure | sup? | 17:58 |
| yashgaroth | ehh not much | 18:00 |
| yashgaroth | missed the last biolab meeting, will have to see what happened | 18:00 |
| kanzure | i like how nobody publishes notes | 18:05 |
| kanzure | not even biocurious or genspace | 18:05 |
| yashgaroth | I'd ask jojack about the gist but he always seems so busy | 18:06 |
| kanzure | yes but the question is.. with what? | 18:06 |
| kanzure | i mean, really. wtf? | 18:06 |
| yashgaroth | well someone's gotta figure out how the space will actually make any money | 18:07 |
| kanzure | maybe he is busy writing new punch lines about the singularitards | 18:07 |
| kanzure | it takes a lot of effort | 18:07 |
| yashgaroth | a noble pursuit | 18:07 |
| kanzure | the problem with funding a space with companies is that the companies will easy flood your scheduled time on equipment | 18:08 |
| kanzure | and you don't want the companies that wont do that, because they aren't the ones making any money to pay you. | 18:09 |
| kanzure | "we got an order for 1200 pounds of antibodies, so we're gonna go ahead and reserve the hplc for the next.. oh.. month." | 18:09 |
| kanzure | (in my fictional hackerspace in my head, antibodies are quantified by the pound) | 18:10 |
| yashgaroth | well there's giving lab space to colleges who don't have enough room to run lab classes, renting bench space to random people, teaching plebs how to make bacteria glow, and of course "biofuel stuff" | 18:10 |
| yashgaroth | I mean, sure, a small antibody company isn't using their equipment 90% of the time, but they'll all want it during business hours, and when a contract's on the line... | 18:11 |
| yashgaroth | not to mention how many companies we can actually fit, and how worried they'll be about random people rummaging through their shared freezers | 18:11 |
| kanzure | yes have you ever noticed how people clam up when you say "shared freezer" | 18:12 |
| kanzure | it's like they have a flashback to grad school when things went missing from their freezer just once ever | 18:12 |
| yashgaroth | or some jackass breaks it over the weekend and they just lose everything - I mean, it happens all the time, but when you can blame someone else it's a lot easier | 18:13 |
| yashgaroth | I'd like to find out how successful something like the Icogenex incubator is, since they rent benches, but I don't even know if they exist anymore | 18:14 |
| yashgaroth | if you figure we're paying bare minimum 50-60k a year for a competent lab manager, not to mention utilities and eventually rent...shit adds up quick | 18:15 |
| kanzure | well, if the incubator is successful and has at least one company that nets at least $20M (or something?) on an exit, then you could just use those funds to pay for a sustaining hackerspace. but making a deal like that with a company that will exit for that high isn't that easy if you're offering junk. | 18:17 |
| kanzure | but the average time to exit in biotech is.. what.. >5 years? | 18:17 |
| yashgaroth | yeah the startup angle would be good for that, but you figure those people will be super-paranoid about IP and such | 18:18 |
| yashgaroth | and with the ~10% success rate on startups, it's a big risk | 18:18 |
| yashgaroth | exit in biotech depends a lot on the product type | 18:19 |
| kanzure | i haven't been watching biotech exits closely | 18:20 |
| yashgaroth | could be a couple years to work out someone's grad school project's bugs, could be 10 years for a drug | 18:20 |
| kanzure | it seems all over the map | 18:20 |
| kanzure | pharma companies seem to be okay with dropping unlimited piles of cash for random things | 18:20 |
| kanzure | but at the same time different medical device companies end up in the 50-100M range | 18:20 |
| yashgaroth | pharma is huge money and huge risk, even moreso than oil or whatever | 18:21 |
| yashgaroth | the current focus is apparently just "rare diseases!", but I've no idea how to extract operating funds out of that | 18:22 |
