In Pursuit of Health
About us
Immunis Foundation, established in 2022, is a not-for-profit foundation with the ambition to drive important innovation in the field of medical science, healthcare, and health improvements. It aims to achieve this, amongst others, by supporting innovative technology and applications.
Health improvements can include applied research of promising remedies. It can also include improved monitoring or diagnostics based on modern technology.
Our name Immunis comes from Latin and means ‘being resistant to infection’. With that in mind, we pursue practical solutions, with the pursuit of health as the overarching goal.
Immunis Foundation’s contribution can vary from providing risk capital to giving donations.
