IV as some of you already know is local company that works in intellectual property and invention. G=obal Good focuses on inventing technology to improve the lives of the poor=in developing countries and their primary objective is to further charitab=e purpose. Our collaboration with Global Good is a Co-chair priority. Global Good is: Managed by IV, leveraging IV's staff and resourcesc/=> Funded by an investment from the Bill & Melinda Ga=es Asset Trust Focused on inventing technology to improve lives of th= poor in developing countries A for profit entity, whose primary objective is to adv=nce the mission of the foundation EFTA_R1_02163299 EFTA02717489  Reinvesting their profits into GG to further the goals=of its charitable purpose Holding quarterly brainstorming/collaboration sessions=with the BMGF on selected topics Last year GG added a new Vice President and head, Ma=rizio Vecchione, and a new Director of Research and Strategy, Ali Arjomand= Maurizio and Ali initiated a transformation of GG strategies and it= business model with six main thematic areas of focus. Disease Modeling Vaccine logistics Vector Management Malaria and TB Diagnostics Maternal and Child Health Agricultural Productivity These areas were chosen in part because they align w=th BMGF strategies, maximize GG's technical comparative advantage and ha=e the highest potential impact. Recently, in order to increase efficiency =nd alignment within the Global Good Fund different programs at IV have all been brought under the direct manag=ment of Maurizio Vecchione (Global Good, New Horizons, Institute of Diseas= Modeling (formerly called EMOD) and the IV labs). Given that we closely collaborate with GG on selecte= topics and projects of mutual interest, we want to encourage collaboratio= and information exchange with GG. To help streamline and facilitate=the collaboration, we have an MOU in place with GG that allows us to share with them selected grant proposals and ann=al reports. This allows them to work with us in landscaping particular top=cs of mutual interest. However, we do need to ensure it is done appropriat=ly and maintain confidentiality of any third party materials that have been provided to the foundation sub=ect to NDA agreements. To this end, we have developed a process chttp://operations/sites/ExecOfficeCollab/GGF/The%20Legal%20Corne=/GG%20Protocol%20to%20Share%20Grant%20 Proposals%20and%20ARs.docx> to share such materials. If you still have questions regarding =hat can and cannot be shared from a legal perspective, please contact Alin= Flower in legal. Global Good is holding monthly office hours at the f=undation (besides their individually scheduled ad hoc meetings).
