Initial front
Longevity & prevention
Clinics, personalised protocols, prevention, early detection and an active later life. Healthspan — the years lived in good health — is the metric that matters, not lifespan alone.
What we look for
- Preventive clinics and protocols built on consolidated evidence, with measured outcomes
- Continuous diagnostic and follow-up models (tests, biomarkers, imaging) with a real service layer
- Services for an active later life: mobility, autonomy, community
- Models that widen access beyond the top income decile — this is where our thesis is tested
What stays out
- Drug discovery and geroscience biotech
- Anti-ageing aesthetics
- Protocols without a clinical evidence base or a plan to build one
What we do not claim
We do not claim that any protocol adds years of life or reverses biological age. Longevity today is for the few; our thesis depends on widening access, and that is what we will measure.
