Introduction: When Finance Meets Longevity Science

In the traditional investment world, healthcare ventures often focus on treating diseases after they occur. But what if we told you there's a fund that exclusively invests in extending healthy human lifespan? What if there's a group of investors who believe death is not an inevitable fate, but a technical problem that can be solved?

Q: How does a specialized longevity fund differ from traditional healthcare investment?

Healthspan Capital provides the revolutionary answer.
