Nice one—given the obvious precedent, you should be all good getting 50 million or so from OpenPhil for starters, then hopefully the market will take you from there to serious impact.
As a minor side question, I’m not quite sure how you will achieve “high” impact. With my limited knowledge, the impact of asteroids is usually rather low, at something close to ground level. Perhaps aiming for the top of Mt. Everest might be a good start?
@Alexander_Berger Happy to explore a win-win-win opportunity! We are already in communications with VCs, but we’d love to get some philanthropic interest as well! Not donating to us will be an astronomical waste.
For $50M, we’d even consider giving you a permanent seat on our Board of Concurrers!
