Laurence Ion is a Steward at VitaDAO - a community-owned collective dedicated to funding and advancing longevity science.
Longevity is the defining question of the century. Laurence is passionate about health & longevity due to his personal experience struggling with disease.
Laurence was one of the key organizers of Zuzalu, Vitalik Buterin's pop-up city in Montenegro, and worked with Niklas to put together new initiatives to break through the regulatory bottlenecks that hold back the science & technology of longevity.
This episode encapsulates our thinking on the flawed ethical and regulatory paradigm in medical innovation, resulting from many months of problem analysis and solution-finding through conversations with governments and policymakers in Latin America, Africa and Europe.
The future we want to build is one where we use a different regulatory paradigm, as safe or safer than the existing one, while faster to innovate. A safe haven for refugees of age-related diseases that want to try something different, rejuvenate and heal.
Most importantly, Laurence and Niklas believe community-building is at the heart of what we do, and having seen the possibility of creating talent density like in Zuzalu inspires us to push the boundaries further, and build a bigger movement.
A movement aligned in defeating the Dragon Tyrant of Aging.
If you're a biotechnologist, renegade life scientist or relentless entrepreneur who wants to help radically supercharge human health and extend lifespan, join us!
The key upcoming initiatives are:
Longevity State Congress in Sep 2023
Prospera Buildweeks 2023 starting in Oct 2023
DeSci & Longevity Biotech 2023 - A Próspera Builders' Summit in Nov 2023
Start a Longevity Network State in Latin America in Q1-2024
