The Longevity Investment Ecosystem

The Spannr team has been hard at work over the past year creating an in-depth database to track investing activities across the longevity industry.

In addition to hundreds of companies, we've also identified hundreds of investors that range from individual angel investors to corporate funds - all who understand the massive opportunity that lies ahead for us all. 

Although we have much more data to share later this year, we are happy to announce that you can view:

• Investors by type

• Amount raised by category

• Total amount raised (TTM)

• Fundraising totals by round type

• Top 10 investors by deal #

• Top 10 companies by funds raised

• Over 1,000 investors who have already allocated funds 

• Much, much more!

We've even created animations to show cumulative funding over time (click the image below to see the growth of the industry). 

Sleep Trackers for Longevity Enthusiasts

Sleep is a vital component of our overall well-being, and for longevity enthusiasts, it holds even greater importance.

As we strive to lead healthier lives that enable us to extend past the norm, understanding health metrics like 

sleep quality vs quantity

 is crucial.

Fortunately, advancements in technology have brought forth a new era of sleep tracking devices that empower us with actionable insights to optimize our sleep habits.
