Please join us in using a deep ethics driven approach to help solve one of the hardest problems in healthcare, the non-optimized use of medications and vaccines. Our goal is to raise and deploy up to $5 billion dollars to help improve health and wellbeing for 200 million+ people, save up to $200 billion per year, and create billions in new market value in this space by 2031
For people who are disatisfied with the current rate of change in this space, the RAPID Alliance at Intrinsica is organizing an innovation community designed to accelerate innovation at scale in order to optimize use of medications and vaccines in the US and beyond.
The platform works by bringing together key stakeholders from across the ecosystem, in both public and private sectors, to solve problems no one party can solve alone. What makes it unique is how it combines 7 key elements: deep ethics, cutting edge science, advanced technologies, a collaborative funding model, collaborative policy development, community-based multi-stakeholder governance, and a shared commitment to improving health and wellbeing for all people.
In this event, we will be kicking off this platform, welcoming key partners, reviewing the strategic plan, and hearing innovation project proposals from a number of presenters. Innovation projects we support can be public sector, private sector or and hybrid (e.g. platform utilities of value to both sides).
The discussion will include plans to generate funding of $25M in 2022, growing to several hundred million per year by 2031, to accelerate innovation in this space.
