Exceptional Ventures Joyspan® Summit 2026
“You say you want a revolution, well you know... we all want to change the world” 🎶
The team at Exceptional Ventures is thrilled to invite you to our Joyspan® Summit 2026 - A Tale of Two Futures, taking place in London on Thursday, April 16th.
Advances in AI, biology, and medical science are accelerating at an extraordinary pace. At the same time, the noise is getting louder. Misinformation, over-optimisation, and misaligned incentives are spreading just as quickly as the science.
It feels, in many ways, like the best of times and the worst of times. Or perhaps both.
Our co-founders, Matt Cooper and Paolo Pio, will explore that duality, what real health innovation looks like today, and the role founders, investors, and institutions must play in driving the future of human health.
This will be an intimate evening bringing together our Exceptional Founders and LPs, and great friends we’ve made along the way, including key opinion leaders, scientists, policymakers, and media representatives.
