The X-Spine cervical plate is functional and has some traction, US Spine's pedicle screw is vanilla with no problems, and Amedica will continue to drive SiN regardless whether there is applicability or not. If I bucked up $15 million in this economy, I would expect an IPO down the road or there would be some people swimming with the fishes. The only question that remains is whether the offer is worth entertaining.Musculoskeletal Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14873819014357051373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-126852961571725269.post-33754654913758371372010-09-30T12:07:22.584-07:002010-09-30T12:07:22.584-07:00Seriously, Spinecraft?

To get much of anything you had better have good IP, sales that will continue after the sale and a good quality system. Big strategic acquirers are real picky. Too many companies don't build the foundation from the ground up.

Face it, some of these companies were originally started, not to build a company, but to sell their I.P.
