I'm an outsider, but to quote credible external sources, Science AAAS writer Derek Lowe documented that the biotech startup scene was large and relatively easier to get investments in from 1991 to 1994, with stagnation in 2012 [0].

McKinsey separately reported that there has since been another boom in the biotech sector in the 2020s [1].

> boom in the biotech sector in the 2020s

Thanks, McKinsey, that's a great use of your consulting superpowers. Hey, was there a boom in artificial intelligence around 2015 as well? For $65,000 an hour, I'm sure you'll be happy to tell us.
