Setting our sights high
Setting our sights high, we invest for the long-term in scientifically sound strategies that produce measurable results and lasting benefits. We recognize that the greatest breakthroughs come from a willingness to inquire and experiment. Not everything we try will work, but we know if everything did, that we were not thinking big enough.
Determining what we support requires thoughtful analysis. To evaluate possible ideas, programmatic activities and any significant potential endeavors, we always ask four key questions, which we call the Four Filters: 1) Is it important? 2) Can we make an enduring difference? 3) Is it measurable? 4) Does it contribute to a portfolio effect?
