The Therapeutics Accelerator was launched less than two months ago. Can you share an update on its progress?

We’re very excited about the number of partners who have joined the effort over the past two months. The Therapeutics Accelerator was originally launched with $125 million in support from Wellcome, Mastercard, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. As of today, more than $250 million has been committed, and donors now include the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, the United Kingdom’s Department for International Development, the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation, Avast, Alwaleed Philanthropies, EQT, and the artist and philanthropist, Madonna.
