About Us
Who We Are
The Davos Alzheimer’s Collaborative (DAC) is a global partnership of like-minded organizations that is mobilizing the world against Alzheimer’s disease.
Advised by leaders in science, finance and healthcare, DAC is working with international organizations, governments and the private sector to accelerate innovation and deliver solutions around the globe.
DAC is organized both as a Swiss Foundation and a United States 501 (c) (3) organization.
Mission
DAC is leading the largest global response of its kind, driving scientific discovery and aligning health systems to help people worldwide, including those in low- and middle-income countries left out of previous efforts to fight Alzheimer’s.
We are committed to transforming Alzheimer’s research, prevention and care through proven private-public models, such as Gavi, CEPI and The Global Fund.
Focus
We are driving progress in three critical areas:
Developing a global cohort to diversify the populations we can reach with targeted treatments
Creating a global clinical trial platform to reduce the cost and time of developing new treatments
Preparing every healthcare system to deliver Alzheimer’s care and speed innovations to those who need them most.
