Longevity covers therapeutics, robotics, and fintech. Yet as an emerging industry how do these get financed when they are so risky? How should venture firms evaluate longevity companies and how should founders attract investors and employees? This symposium will look at these questions specifically as applied to longevity, uniquely from the investor, scientist, and the founder viewpoint. The symposium will provide a foundation to the field with talks from investors, scientists and company founders who will explain their respective perspectives, and will include talks from Stanford faculty involved with startups and spinouts.
