Healthy Longevity

Our vision

We envision a future where everyone is empowered to live healthier lives for longer.

Our mission

Catalyse cross-sector, cross-industry action to advance healthy living across the life course and reimagine systems of tomorrow to close the gap between healthspan and life span.

The opportunity for collective action

Healthy longevity requires more than scientific and technological progress. It requires coordinated action to translate knowledge into sustained behaviors, align incentives around prevention and create the conditions for promising solutions to be adopted at scale.

The initiative provides a platform for stakeholders across business, government, academia, and civil society to identify shared challenges, build partnerships and advance collective action.

Addressing 4 systemic gaps 

To achieve healthy longevity at scale, we aim to address 4 systemic gaps in health and healthcare:

Incentive gap

How can we develop appropriate policies and design new market mechanisms to align incentive structures and reward healthy behaviours as they occur?

Information gap

How should cross-sector stakeholders work together to activate individuals and create health-promoting environments?

Infrastructure gap

How can we redesign care delivery with cross-sector players to expand capacity and enable timely, tailored interventions?

Investment gap

How do we move fast from promising point solutions to real-world systemic acceptance and adoption? How to build an ecosystem to effectively identify, fund, and scale promising solutions in healthy longevity?
