Seeking: Macronutrients to Provide Health Insights
A yet2 client is seeking commercially available tests that provide information about a person’s macronutrient needs. Preferably the test will be based on, but not limited to, genetic markers. The focus of this search is on the analytical procedure and scientific interpretation rationale, i.e., a proven relationship between a genotype and a phenotype. Ideally this would go beyond a literature review of case studies/genetic markers that have a statistical association but no futher testing.

Exploring Adjacency in Tech Scouting
Scott Simpson Cohen, co-founder of Innovation Leader recently wrote about challenges in scouting for technology and emerging trends, based on his organization’s new research, “Best Practices: Scouting Trends & Emerging Tech.” One of the issues Cohen cites is “identifying the right areas to scout” and that “what’s holding large corporations back … is that they don’t know where to look – many only hunt near their headquarters, or at their annual trade show.”
