1/16/03: We received a considerable amount of feedback from last week's perspective. The point was not that established firms are obsolete or out of touch. The point is that there is an evolutionary process in business. And those firms that are able adjust to these times in the business cycle are those that will succeed. To further that point, in the same week the US Labor Department released its monthly report, stating that 101,000 individuals filed for unemployment benefits in December (the highest amount since 1992), GVA, an international commercial real estate firm, launched a practice group to serve the biotech industry. GVA decision-makers clearly see a lot of opportunity in biotech and have flagged it as a growth industry. Reducing payrolls is a very important, prudent measure in a recession and should never be underestimated. However, it's even more important to find new paths of growth.
