Longevity is the defining question of humanity.
However, biotech R&D and commercial use are chronically underfunded and slow, due to legacy regulatory systems that lock in old solutions and create bottlenecks for new ones.
Solutions such as medical reciprocity laws, sunset clauses and right-to-try legislation have the ethical upper hand, but the "Machiavelli Effect" (J. Storrs Hall) is preventing adoption.
However, startup cities and network states, as well as innovation-friendly smaller jurisdictions are promising to change the game.
From medical tourism arbitrage in Mexico, Turkey & Thailand, to clinical research hubs such as Australia, pharma production zones in Uruguay and Costa Rica, as well as polycentric law zones such as Prospera Honduras - innovation is on the horizon.
What jurisdictions hold the most promise to unleash the power of longevity biotechnology? How can scientists and entrepreneurs use them?
Can we build a new jurisdiction and a Longevity Network State?
We'll discuss these questions with the key experts and practitioners in the field.
