No matter who pays for healthcare, until we make changes, we will bankrupt whoever is paying.”  - Rob Frankfurt   Rob Frankfurt founded Myca Partners, Inc. (“Myca”) in 2006 to invest in small cap US-public and private companies. He has invested in a broad array of industries with particular focus in: technology hardware/software/services, healthcare technology/equipment/services, consumer products, marketing, fulfillment and outsourcing services, payment processing technology, industrial manufacturing, and value added distribution. In recent years, Rob has focused his investments in the area of Wellness and Healthy Lifestyle companies. Rob believes that there are tremendous opportunities to reverse/prevent the Obesity epidemic which stands at 40% of adult Americans and chronic illness which, in its various forms, is the cause of 70% of deaths in America. Chronic illness costs nearly $3 Trillion per year in health costs and lost employee productivity. This chronic illness epidemic is spreading across the world unabated. Maintaining the status quo is not a viable solution nor can we out insure/out run poor lifestyle choices. Listen in today as Jimmy picks Rob’s brain about the intersection of health and Entrepreneurialism.
