Personally love this company and strongly believe there will be many multi billion $ consumer facing biotech companies in the next decade with this company leading the way.

Interesting to see how they leveraging the companies data, and how valuable that will prove to be in the future. Probably in ways we can’t even imagine.

I think another important point is the social networking aspect of the company. I have actually been introduced to long lost relatives via the site. Personally I think this is especially attractive aspect to their model and future potential.

On December 6, 2015, Matt commented on Chipotle Mexican Grill: Food with Integrity :

Chipotle definitely has made waves in this industry as pretty much leading the way for the fast-casual business model. As consumers continue to move away from fast food chains, and more companies copy Chipotle’s model, I wonder how Chipotle will maintain keep an edge on the competition.

On December 6, 2015, Matt commented on Tesla Motors – Revolutionizing the Auto Industry :

Very interesting article! It is amazing how far ahead Tesla is from other auto manufactures. Exactly the type of disruption this industry needs. Having not actually purchased a Tesla (Yet!) I had no idea they focused so heavily on customer feedback.

I have read about their new battery facility, but I wonder what percentage of their components are manufactured in house vs. via 3rd parties.
