Our mission is to help create and make accessible the products, services, programs and policies that will empower people to live better for longer.

We believe everyone can benefit from healthcare that goes beyond preventing and treating illness – by improving quality of life through fostering meaningful relationships, emotional wellbeing, sound finances, and the capacity to develop and thrive.

Humanity stands at a critical juncture

What if we focus on what makes us healthy, rather than what makes us sick?

It’s a simple question, but it led us on a path to reinvent our collective approach to global and individual healthcare. It’s a frontier that deserves our full attention, investment and creative application.

With most of the world’s healthcare systems outdated, overburdened and focused on sickness rather than health, now is the time for a paradigm shift in thinking and bold action.

The cost of inaction is staggering. Exploding healthcare costs, diminishing quality of life – untapped human potential. Healthspan is how we make a difference.

It is our imperative to redefine what healthcare means, to give every person ownership of their health, to create solutions that give vitality to people of all ages, from all walks of life, wherever they live in the world.
