The Dementia Discovery Fund (“DDF”), who recently raised £250 million, is a highly innovative new fund backed by the UK Government, Alzheimer’s Research UK and seven of the world’s leading pharmaceutical and biotech companies. The DDF is funding the discovery and development of new disease-modifying treatments for Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia with the intent to improve dramatically the quality of life for the growing number of dementia sufferers and their families while also generating a financial return. Laurence Barker, Chief Business Officer, and Barbara Tate, Venture Partner, will be in attendance to present an overview of the DDF, key areas of interest and investment models. Following the presentation, they will be on hand to meet with a handful of approved applicants one-on-one after the presentation.
