SOCIAL IMPACT
Endeavor Life Sciences Growth Advisors and Endeavor Venture Fund & Venture Studio is a staunch defender of the right to healthcare and the global democratization of healthcare. Dr. Gershon is dedicated to the development of social ventures and public-private partnerships between policy makers, corporations, foundations, financial firms, and social entrepreneurs that target healthcare disparities and promote better access and distribution of critical drugs, devices, and healthcare services.
As part of our social commitment Dr. Gershon is an advisor and member of Doctors without Borders and Endeavor Life Sciences and Gershon & Company partner with Bristol Myers-Squibb to provide healthcare for women and children with HIV AIDS in developing countries.
Our team believes that as global healthcare systems begin to reevaluate the healthcare needs of its citizens, social entrepreneurs are playing increasingly vital roles by leveraging the sophisticated business skills and global networks of the private sector to solve healthcare problems in the public sector.
These public-private partnership models for entrepreneurial collaboration are unique in history. They create sustainable businesses which do not rely on traditional philanthropy, but instead align the interests of traditional competitors and empower citizens by building foundations of economically sound revenue generating clusters that can organically grow and adapt to solve today’s and tomorrow’s healthcare problems.
In our increasingly interdependent world the challenges we face to improve healthcare cannot be solved by government, corporations, or individuals working alone. We believe that to effectively solve our global healthcare crisis it is essential to develop an integrated decision making chain by engaging national and world community leaders, inspiring them with strategic insights, and, enabling them with creative synchronized strategic plans developed in collaboration with a multidisciplinary team from industry, the private sector, government and entrepreneurs.
