The Fountain #9: Investor Demo Day, Human Augmentation, & A Model For Regulatory Hacking in Biotech

Hello, dear Vitalian reader! Hello from the sunny island of Roatán, the island where you have an invite to come over… 😉

This week's edition comes with a breakdown of the July programming, an introduction to the Operation Warpseed model for regulatory hacking in biotech, and hot-off-the-press news about someone… who did gene therapy… guess where!

Let's dive into it — But first, a nootropics cocktail?

🏝️ Okay but, what will the Summer Program *Actually* Look Like?

This past Thursday, we had an Ask Me Anything Twitter Space session breaking down the info details of the Accelerate & Live Forever Program!

TL;DR

• The Startups Acceleration Program will have weekly sprints with accountability, including mentoring sessions and 1:1 guidance – getting you ready for pitching at Investor Demo Day. [Check out the Fellowship Program]

• The Human Augmentation Week will be packed with biohacking sessions, interactive classes, and workshops with human enhancement demos. We're also planning a "stellar" live artist performance!

• The Vitalia Lifestyle Protocol is all about being healthy, laser-focused, productive, balancing fun and work, and centered on personal development!

🧪 Bryan Johnson Came To Roatán To Get Gene Therapy

EXCITING NEWS!!

Bryan Johnson just got his first-ever gene therapy in Próspera, Honduras, to live forever!

"This could be the most powerful anti-aging therapy I've ever received."

Will this help break the 120-year ceiling?

🧬 A Model For Regulatory Hacking in Biotech

Operation Warpspeed, the COVID-19 fast-track programme, proved it could be done: expediting the evaluation of a pharmaceutical compound's safety and efficacy profile, trimming much of the bloated due process. 

But why is there no Operation Warpspeed for cancer*? For Alzheimers? For cardiovascular diseases? For aging itself? These patients suffer as much or more.

Imagine if all drug discovery was conducted at the same pace of "Operation Warp Speed”.

Such a model can be made possible within Próspera, requiring only a short flight to Central America.

Enter Vitalia, a new district in Próspera ZEDE dedicated to longevity biotech.
