...based in the Netherlands, has helped biotechs chemically package 25 drugs to reach bodily ZIP codes and, once there, work efficiently. The seven-year-old private company has been profitable from Day One, and this year revenues jumped 25%, to $5 million. Holthuis, 48, has raised $6 million to speed development of microscopic beads that release drugs gradually into the body. Clinical trials are slated for spring...
...pedaling, the eGo ($1,400 at egovehicles.com takes about as much effort to ride as an office chair.
