Using MedTRACK to the FullestTOP
Did you know that you could use MedTRACK for target identification or venture financing?
MedTRACK easily allows you to identify the burn rate (years in cash) of a company.
MedTRACK’s screener allows you to specifically target companies with a specific amount of years in cash along with other identifiers.
The end result is a financial snapshot of the companies working in the specific area you defined.
The view below would be useful for identifying:
- Possible partners for product development
- Companies in need of financing
- Companies in danger of going out of business
- Possible targets for merger opportunities
In addition to MedTRACK, you can use the Venture Finance database to identify companies investing in specific areas, assess the venture landscape, and see what types of financing is occurring.
