Good morning from Pharma and Biotech daily: the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in Pharma and Biotech world.A new data release shows that Summit's Keytruda competitor, Ivonescimab, had better overall survival rates in Asian patients compared to those in North America and Europe. Despite this, the drug narrowly missed the statistical significance threshold required by the FDA for approval in Western countries. Meanwhile, Rapport Therapeutics saw a 180% increase in its stock value after positive mid-stage data for its epilepsy pill, and the FDA opted for a consumer "green list" instead of addressing compounded versions of obesity drugs. The FDA's leadership turnover has led to confusion and uncertainty for small and medium biopharma companies. Lilly is seeking individuals who are willing to challenge the status quo in medicine.FDA expert panels are being criticized for lack of balance, with some meetings being one-sided. RFK Jr. faced bipartisan criticism for his anti-vaccine views during a Senate hearing. Meanwhile, Servier committed up to $530 million in an eye cancer deal and Gilead partnered with the US State Department to distribute a drug to low-income countries. The FDA released a new rare disease approval framework and dropped heavily redacted rejection letters. Amidst uncertainty in FDA leadership, small and medium biopharma companies are left without clear guidance for their therapies. Opinion pieces highlight the potential of small molecules in gene therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy and criticize the lack of balance in FDA expert panels. The newsletter also includes upcoming events, job listings, and a request for feedback on coverage topics.

Good morning from Pharma and Biotech daily: the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in Pharma and Biotech world. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is set to testify before the Senate Finance Committee on September 4. This comes after the removal of CDC Director Susan Monarez and the appointment of HHS Deputy Secretary Jim O'Neill as her interim replacement. Kennedy, along with FDA Commissioner Marty Makary and CBER Director Vinay Prasad, had previously been vocal against vaccine mandates during the COVID-19 pandemic, citing concerns about limiting medical choice. However, the FDA, under their leadership, has now approved updated COVID-19 vaccines with restrictions that go against this stance.RFK's vaccine restrictions are being viewed as restricting promised medical freedom. The FDA recently gave the green light to updated COVID-19 shots from Pfizer, Moderna, and Novavax but with certain limitations. This news comes as Teva introduces the first GLP-1 generic for obesity to the market, and J&J discontinues its rheumatoid arthritis program after disappointing mid-stage data. Kennedy's upcoming testimony highlights the ongoing turmoil within CDC leadership and raises questions about the conflicting messages surrounding vaccine mandates and medical freedom.

The New Wave of AI-First SaaS Companies Serving SMBs w/ Cooper Simson of Martell Ventures - AZ TRT S06 EP16 (278) 8-24-2025       What We Learned This Week: ·         Political & product risk can kill a business overnight. ·         AI is lowering barriers to software creation while eliminating low-value roles. ·         SMBs are ripe for AI adoption, especially in workflow automation & marketing. ·         The best AI businesses solve real problems — not just add shiny features. ·         Future-proofing means building where the “puck” is going, not where it's been.     Guest: Cooper Simson https://www.linkedin.com/in/cooper-simson-896957b1/ Website: https://martellventures.com Contact Cooper -  Instagram: @Coop_Doggy_Dog  Dan Martell's portfolio manager and business partner at Martell Ventures. Cooper talks about what they're building around AI and SaaS software, companies they work with, and the products for SMBs.   Show Notes Guest: Cooper – Entrepreneur & AI Venture Builder Bio ·         Started with a finance degree but never pursued traditional finance. ·         First venture: lead-gen & marketing agency (failed when partner left). ·         Pivoted through freelance work → launched a business helping people apply for government grants using AI. ·         Business collapsed overnight due to political risk when U.S. policy changed. ·         Backed by Dan Martel, who later brought Cooper into Martel Venture Studio AI. ·         Lessons learned: Always maintain control of the product and build businesses that can withstand outside risks.     Segment 1: AI + SMB Software Companies ·         Martel Ventures works with AI-first SaaS companies solving real business problems for SMBs (0–100 employees, $1M–$50M+ in revenue). ·         Examples of portfolio companies: o    Precision Connect – cleans and organizes business data dashboards. o    Atlas AI – AI voice agent that can call leads, nearly indistinguishable from a human caller. o    Hero – recruitment tool powered by AI. ·         AI is the middleman killer → entry-level tech jobs (SDRs, data analysts) most at risk. ·         Core question for any AI product: Does it solve a real problem, or is it just an AI feature? Segment 2: Dan Martel & Martel Ventures ·         Dan Martel: 27+ years in tech, 3 major software exits, 5M+ followers. ·         Founder of SaaS Academy (coached 6,000+ students). ·         Author of Buy Back Your Time. ·         Martel Ventures (founded 2024): o    Invests in and advises AI SaaS startups. o    Target: 10–12 portfolio companies per year. o    Provides equity, funding, and advisory services to accelerate growth & marketing. ·         Martel Ventures' niche: AI + SaaS companies with clear use cases and revenue potential. ·         Cooper's biggest takeaway: “Skate to where the puck is going” — build for future AI demand, not yesterday's. Segment 3: The AI Shift in Business ·         Cost transformation: AI drastically reduces software development and coding costs. ·         AI enables SMBs to: o    Automate workflows & reduce repetitive tasks. o    Boost employee efficiency → turns “C players” into “B+ players.” o    Increase ROI per employee by shifting them to higher-value work. ·         SMB Examples: Local service providers, agencies, or firms generating $1M–$50M annually with 5–200 employees. ·         Key insight: If you can't identify the customer and the problem solved in 5 seconds, the product likely won't succeed. AI Use Cases in Marketing & Ops ·         Lead research automation. ·         Retargeting: AI can read your website, identify IPs, and find who visited. ·         Ad research: analyze competitor ads with AI agents. ·         Campaign automation: compresses timelines from weeks to days. ·         Contact management: AI can segment and organize lists for sharper targeting. Cooper Philosophy: Frameworks & Systems ·  The "Founding 50" framework walkthrough ·  How to diagnose bottlenecks and build fast paths to MRR ·  Distribution engine strategies that accelerate growth Contrarian Takes ·  "Distribution beats capital — especially when your offer hits" ·  Why founders waste time perfecting products instead of selling ·  Red flags he spots instantly in founders AI Market Insights ·  What makes AI-first companies different from traditional SaaS ·  Why SMBs are the sweet spot for AI products right now ·  How venture landscape is changing for AI companies Leadership & Scaling ·  "Lighthouse, not tugboat" guidance approach ·  Speed over perfection in execution ·  People-first, action-oriented leadership style     Dan Martell – Bio info https://www.danmartell.com/ventures/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/dmartell/?originalSubdomain=ca https://www.saasacademy.com/author-dan-martell Dan Martell is a renowned coach and founder of SaaS Academy, celebrated for his expertise in scaling B2B SaaS businesses and significant contributions as an angel investor.
