The best research into prevention and healthy ageing only helps people once it has been incorporated into the healthcare system: recognised, measurable and fundable.

No one is going to establish this political framework on their own. PRIMA is working on it – as a non-profit and independent organisation. To do this, we need people and organisations to support us.

Whether an innovation reaches people rarely depends solely on the laboratory, but rather on the regulatory and health policy environment. This framework does not emerge of its own accord – it must be actively shaped.

And it is a public good: a recognised pathway to healthy ageing benefits everyone – science, healthcare and society – but no single stakeholder funds it on their own. That is precisely why we need a neutral institute, dedicated to the public good, to coordinate this work. That is PRIMA’s role.

PRIMA translates scientific findings into political reality – through concrete measures that have an impact extending beyond individual projects.

Our independence is not a side effect, but the foundation of our credibility.

Independent

Support does not confer any influence over content. We do not advertise individual products and do not engage in any quid pro quo – we represent the public interest, not individual interests.

Charitable

PRIMA gGmbH is recognised as a non-profit organisation (Section 60a of the German Fiscal Code). Funds are channelled into the work set out in our articles of association. We will issue a donation receipt upon request.

Transparent

We are open about what we know and what we do not know – and where there is still some way to go from evidence to policy. Rigorous analysis takes precedence over promises.

Whether you’re an individual who cares about this issue, a business or an organisation – there’s a way that suits you.
