Adding decades of health is the greatest gift we can offer humanity. I believe that converging exponential technologies will enable us to make 100 years old the new 60.

By developing therapeutics that target biological aging rather than disease, we can revolutionize the way we think about and treat aging. If these trials are successful, we will prove that it is possible to improve health even as we age.

I can think of no better place to spend my money than to extend the life of myself and the rest of the planet. I believe it was the concept of ‘why should I die with money?’ that inspired me to be part of this incredible venture.

From space exploration to healthy life extension, XPRIZE is pushing the boundaries of what was previously thought impossible. I’m excited to be part of the XPRIZE Healthspan mission to change our lives, making them longer, healthier, and happier.

BARRIER
Traditional medicine focuses on treating symptoms of injury, illness, or disease once they develop. This reactive system extends life, but doesn’t proactively improve health, leaving millions grappling with poor quality of life and related economic challenges in their later years.
BREAKTHROUGH
IMPACT
If these trials are successful, we will prove that it is possible to improve health as we age. This prize will help us begin to create guidelines and new solutions for healthy aging.
Success would profoundly change our approach to aging and positively affect quality-of-life and healthcare costs. Working across all sectors, we can democratize health and create a future where aging is full of potential.
