The World Economic Forum Annual Meeting brings together leaders of global society–the heads and members of more than 100 governments, top executives of the 1,000 foremost global companies, leaders of international organizations, and prominent thought leaders–to define priorities and shape global, industry, and regional agendas.
uBiome was chosen to join the Technology Pioneer community in 2018, composed of early-stage companies from around the world that are involved in the design, development, and deployment of new technologies and innovations, and are poised to have a significant impact on business and society. Previous recipients include Google, Foundation Medicine, Airbnb, Kickstarter, Spotify, and Twitter. Read related news here.
The microbiome is believed to have a profound effect on human health, including synthesizing vitamins, metabolizing nutrients, impacting immune response, and interacting with our hormones.
Given that recent research suggests microbes influence body systems and various health conditions, understanding and further manipulating these interactions may allow for better management and treatment of conditions.
"The microbiome is one of the most significant scientific discoveries of our age, regarded as a new organ of the human body, and it is proposed to revolutionize the future of healthcare. As such, the microbiome is of eminent importance to global thought-leaders," Dr. Jessica Richman, PhD, co-founder and CEO of uBiome, said. "uBiome is honored to contribute cutting-edge insights to initiatives and world-critical discussions at the Annual Meeting by sponsoring the first Microbiome Conference at WEF."
