What is the main goal for this project?

The main goal of this project is to create an initial financial plan for a key business venture in the longevity and healthcare space.


The person joining us will leverage competitive benchmarking, industry research, and financial principles to help build a model that we can use as a starting point for early stage investor decks.


Students will work closely with our team to understand our business strategy and goals, ultimately delivering a final report and presentation that outlines key financial insights and recommendations.
