The 966 Podcast features a special episode this week for episode 114 with an exclusive, live duo of conversations, first with HRH Dr. Haya Bint Khaled Bin Bandar Al-Saud, Vice President of Organizational Strategy and Development for the Hevolution Foundation, and then with Hevolution's CEO, Dr. Mehmood Khan. Lucien and Richard recorded conversations with top Hevolution officials after the launch of Hevolution's "Global Healthspan Summit" in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The event was the organization's coming out party and first major event - unique in the growing field of healthspan science in which Hevolution is aiming to make a big impact and lead the way with hundreds of millions in investments into figuring out how to make humans age healthier.
HRH Dr. Haya tells Lucien and Richard how she got involved with Hevolution as "Employee #1," the importance of the Foundation's work, the importance of Hevolution as an impact investor, and much more.
After that conversation, Lucien and Richard welcome back onto The 966, in perhaps the quickest return for a special guest to-date, the incomparable Dr. Mehmood Khan, Chief Executive Officer of The Hevolution Foundation. Dr. Khan, always dynamic and engaging, recaps the event and all the prizes and grants awarded at the event, while discussing some of the Foundation's next steps in their battle to combat the challenges associated with aging and advancing geroscience from their main HQ in Riyadh.
