From: Austin Hill To: Alex Fowler Cc: Dr Adam Back Bcc: [email protected] Subject: Fwd: An idea for TED2014 talk to kill cancer and give it away to the world Date: Fri, 08 Aug 2014 10:05:00 +0000 hey Alex, This is what I mentioned to you on the phone yesterday. Adam is aware of my aspirations to have this be part of our philanthropy efforts as a company. My idea for a cancer fighting Center & free disease fighting Centers / free healthcare for the planet. Since we are busy with Blockstream now we need to focus, but I think getting this in MIT's hands to let Media Lab run with it might be good. Megan smith at Google solve for X connected me with Joi Ito & Patti Maes so once we get the Bloclstream team going & revenue / product running I may take a few weeks to visit Joi at MIT to jump start this idea again. I don't want to get distracted from reinventing money & assets / trust but this is a personal issue for me so at the appropriate time I will be taking periodic sabbaticals to make sure we get this idea going. It will be easier to fund once we launch the Sidechains liquidity Bonds have a few basis points on the entire cash float of a few nation states paying our way. Just FYI :) Forwarded message From: Austin Hill Date: Tuesday, April 9, 2013 Subject: An idea for TED2014 talk to kill cancer and give it away to the world To: Chris Anderson Hi Chris, It's been awhile since we've seen each other. I was busy helping another person I love fight cancer and working on some other personal projects that kept me away from TED for the last few years. I'm registered for TED2014 which I'm so excited is coming to my home country Canada. I have an idea for a TED talk that I think is worthy of the TED stage and will require the help of the TED community to make a dream of mine real. I've attached an outline of the concept I've been playing with. I've already had some interesting conversations and I think we can kill cancer for the world, for free within 5-7 years and make it impossible for anyone to never have to die of cancer ever again. I've attached an outline.....The idea is still new and needs some maturing, but a few people told me now is the time to share it with you. EFTA00994706 Can I come walk & talk with you to get your advice on if this is something the TED.COM team would like to help me make real? -Austin Austin Hill Cognitive Playground Designer - Brudder Ventures "at BrudderVentures we play with your mind - but we try to be kind" Ovaustinhill What if you aligned everyone's interest to create a habitat for humanity meets world of warcraft for fighting cancer??? - Goal is to kill cancer in 5-9 years, destroy the litigious nature of access to doctors in US, crash the pharmaceutical stock prices, give away free cancer fighting to the world and do it all with 1 TED talk announced at TED 2014 A free, self funding cancer research Center - given away to the planet (including all building plans, software, medicines - for free forever) Leveraging Peters work with X Prize to fund different types of cancers & reward innovation Model would be that all treatment is free ... Patients (maybe loved ones) have the option to bequeath a portion of future earnings to the cancer ward for every extra month / year that the Center allows a patient to survive past the real mean average survival times (not the fake ones used right now by pharma to sell drugs and get FDA approval) Patients join fighting teams (Grameen bank model of shared success and watching out for other patients, using peer support to increase survival rates and decrease cellular inflammation due to stress & fear of dying) Center is not allowed to turn down any case Real time futures market for cancer survival rates - honest data for the first time on what is working and not working Wiki crowdsourced approach to integrative regimens (some of the work being done at Care2together - but more detailed, a continual free lab tracking each patients experiments with different aspects of holistic, pharma and dietary approaches to fighting cancer, all tracked in realtime and accelerating the ability to develop highly personalized regimens that work together) Setup in Canada to avoid the litigious nature of us medical system, setup in Quebec because Montreal is one of the only large cities in North America that doesn't have a dedicated cancer fighting hospital and the current system in Quebec is the worst of socialized medicine and is killing patients on purpose because it can't afford to innovate. The before and after contrasts when we baseline performance against every other cancer ward in Montreal hospitals (and eventually the world) will be immediately dramatic and increase acceptance of the idea 2-5 years out. Privately bootstrapped & using no socialized medicine dollars, no corporate donations (aside from Google.org and social enterprises). Funded initially by grants, donations and Xprize reward funds. Setup to be profitable within 3-6 years. Profit coming from licensing data & research to anyone not operating a similarly free centre. Profit coming from foundation funded by endowments from patients who have been helped, or who's battle with cancer was less painful who bequeath part of their estates. Profit sharing in trust for patients & doctors like a mutual fund tied to retained earnings from foundation. Doctors side works like a law practice - patient side like an insurance or mutual fund that pays dividends. Patients actually start getting dividends & payments based on their having been part of the system & research that occurred.
