As the industry prepares for #JPM2025, we’re calling on leaders to consider how they might share the wealth as deals get done. #LifeScienceShares is a new way to pledge a percent of future earnings or success, ensuring that when we do well, our greater community can also benefit. In this episode, we hear from Jeff Marrazzo, co-founder of Spark Therapeutics, Inc., Robert Blum, CEO of Cytokinetics, Sarah Boyce, CEO of Avidity Biosciences, Inc., and Ron Cooper, CEO of enGene, on why they committed to sharing the wealth and how it benefits the business.

Temps are dropping and flakes are flying! That means the adventurous kids who participate in Youth Enrichment Services' weekly ski trips could use some extra layers and ski gear, as well as snacks to keep them fueled. If your company is able to take on either the gear wish list or the snacks wish list (or both!), YES would be most appreciative, and their young participants will be grateful as they build confidence, connect with positive role models, and develop into young leaders while experiencing the outdoors. Please reach out to Blake if you are able to help: blake@lifesciencecares.org!
