About us
Advancing innovation in health, for people and the planet.
NGB is a nonprofit global healthcare organization working to transform the traditional healthcare ecosystem — uniting science, systems thinking, and partnership to improve health outcomes worldwide.
Our mission
To transform the traditional healthcare ecosystem — and advance health for all.
As a nonprofit, we build and advance programs across the lifespan that address the world's most pressing health challenges — chosen on the basis of health need rather than market opportunity.
Institutional Architect
We create the framework through which academic, governmental, and industrial capabilities work together.

Our story
A vision born from science. A mission driven by humanity.
NGB was established by scientists, physicians, and strategists who recognized that the traditional healthcare ecosystem was not built for the problems it now faces. We created NGB to change that — by advancing innovation, strengthening collaboration, and expanding access to the advances that improve human health. We established NGB as a nonprofit so that the question of what to work on could be answered by health need alone.
