Thesis

Longevity is a completely new industry within biotech requiring founders who can think differently. Mission-oriented, founder-led companies with unconventional backgrounds will prove most effective at bringing the first longevity drugs to market and extending human healthy lifespan.

Likely not a fit for

Traditional biotech patterns, repeat pharma executives without longevity passion, large pharma corporate structures, consumer wellness products, lifestyle longevity services
