The Fund is a venture philanthropy fund committed to accelerating life-changing solutions to treat, prevent, and cure type 1 diabetes (T1D) through catalytic equity investments. While independently managed, the Fund is affiliated with JDRF, the leading global organization funding T1D research. Through its investments in partnership with private capital, including venture capital, corporations and foundations, the T1D Fund seeks to attract the private investment necessary to advance cures and therapies into the hands of those living with T1D. The T1D Fund invests in areas strategically aligned with JDRF, with an exclusive focus on supporting the best commercial opportunities. The T1D Fund reinvests any realized gains into new investments to further its mission.
