Longevity

This pre-proposal is designed to provide inspiration into ‘philanthropy reimagined’.

Benefunder was conceived to allow affluent families focus on their vision and legacy rather than administration and compliance.

We hope to assist you in supporting the breakthrough innovations of tomorrow.

Approaches to Longevity There are many ways to approach extending human life:

Breakthroughs in human longevity are increasingly within reach, with new discoveries coming from a wide variety of approaches, any one of which could prove to be the next ‘fountain of youth’. With each approach comes a unique set of risks, opportunities, timelines, and potential for impact.

While there are many challenges ahead, we’re living in exciting times as new discoveries and breakthroughs emerge. We are dependent on both the scientific and commercialization processes in order to see these big ideas widely implemented.

The biggest threat to research today is the lack of funding. Researchers today spend the majority of their time applying for grants that have less than an 8% success rate, in addition to restrictions on the use of funds and high overhead rates. This leaves new ideas and up-and-coming researchers largely on the sidelines – an opportunity for flexible and risktolerant philanthropic capital which can make a profound impact on the research landscape.

Our scientific communities are well equipped to make these discoveries and improve quality of life for all of humanity. Solid science, multidisciplinary and international collaborations, as well as government and industrial involvement will ensure success. Philanthropists have an opportunity to make a substantial impact in this space and emerge as icons in the extension and quality of human life.
