Sun May 15 14:30:05 UTC 2016

ps - Tomorrow all my work with equity and debt crowdfunding goes live in the USA … so if there are any researchers looking to raise up to $1M in the USA a year and do it online from anyone (despite income or net worth) now is his/her chance!

As co-founders of the Crowdfund Investing movement, CCA uses its unique perspective and methodology to help professional investors and institutions (local, state, national governments and NGO's) build crowdfunding ecosystems to support innovation, strengthen businesses and create thousands of new jobs.

The Biobricks Foundation <http://biobricks.org/> is also working on an Open MTA and I'm involved in that through OpenPlant <http://openplant.org/>, but we're primarily focused on solving issues in synthetic biology and exchange of plasmids, so it'll be interesting to see how the documents compare!
