Relevance: The Podestas links with the biotech industry have many connections to pizzagate. Hansjorg Wyss being one example.
From this comment: https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/2390929/11939792
Making the circuit with Podesta, you can see how the game operates - and occasionally doesn't - on behalf of technology companies. Case in point: Genentech. The biotech giant was Podesta Associates' first client a decade ago, when Podesta's lobbying style tended toward the splashy, media-directed side of the game.

The Podestas have many links with Hansjorg Wyss and Biotech Geneva :
The founding members of the Campus Biotech are the Ecole polytechnique fédérale de LAUSANNE, the University of Geneva, the Bertarelli Family and Hansjörg Wyss.
The wikileaks email in the above link points to the connections between the Bertarelli Foundation and Prince Charles https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/26150
Going to the Bertarelli Foundation website https://www.fondation-bertarelli.org/
we see connections with the Swiss Guard at the Vatican https://www.fondation-bertarelli.org/community/swiss-guards/
and Harvard iLab https://www.fondation-bertarelli.org/community/harvard-ilab/
More on Genentech : The Story Of The Suicide Of A Powerful Lobbyist Threatens To Rock K Street https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/evan-morris-lobbyist-suicide_us_55f3833be4b077ca094f44d0
The death of a pioneer in black arts lobbying has Washington operatives pointing fingers and lawyering up.
On Thursday, July 9, 2015, Evan Morris, a super lobbyist with the biotech firm Genentech ...shot himself in the head.
Washington, at least publicly, has respected the family’s privacy: Despite the fact that Morris, who was just 38, was one of the top lobbyists in the city ― he was the head of all government affairs at Genentech ― his death, until Monday, had not been mentioned beyond the blurb in the K Street newsletter and a one-line obituary on the website of the Jefferson Funeral Chapel that reads: “Resided in Alexandria, VA.” His life has largely been scraped from the internet and social media.
Genentech, for its part, continued to dig after Morris died. Prior to his death, the drug company had been probing what it identified as spending irregularities coming out of the Washington office Morris ran, according to people briefed by the firm on the investigation. Morris learned of the probe the week he died; that probe continued after his death, focusing on consulting firms that Morris directed money toward, the sources said. The company had noticed an unusually high amount of spending on Washington consultants, the sources said, and had questions about whether Morris was taking illicit payments in exchange for doling out contracts, or whether he himself was in control of some of the accounts where money was going.

Anytime mate!! Cheers
Did you see this???
The Podesta Group’s 28-page closing foreign-agent registration filing - made three months late due to a "computer error,” a spokesman said – marks the firm’s termination of work for foreign clients including Iraq, Moldova, Azerbaijan and Saudi Arabia, and suggests an end to Podesta’s 31-year run at the intersection of politics and influence in Washington."**

Hmm, if podesta filed the papers 'earlier this month', why is it just being reported now?
