Deepinder Goyal pledges $25M personal fund for ‘Continue Research’ to support global scientists studying human aging

Deepinder Goyal, the CEO and co-founder of Zomato, has taken a bold step into the field of human aging. 

He announced his new initiative, Continue Research, backed by a $25 million personal fund. The project will support researchers around the world who are exploring how to improve human health and extend healthy lifespans.

What is Deepinder Goyal’s Continue Research?

The initiative started two years ago as a research project. Goyal and his team believed that the human body works like a system with key points that, when adjusted, could change how we age and how long we stay healthy. 

He added that the team has been studying an insight about aging that has been hiding in plain sight and expects to share more details in the coming weeks.

How the $25 Million Continue Fund Supports Aging Research

The new fund will provide grants to scientists who are asking simple, important questions about human biology. Goyal wrote:

“We are expanding Continue Research to include a $25 million fund to support researchers who dare to ask simpler questions than anyone else.”

The fund is fully backed by Goyal and open to researchers worldwide. He clarified that Continue is separate from Eternal, his other health-tech initiative. Continue focuses entirely on human aging, health, and function.

Why Extending Healthy Lifespan is Important

Goyal believes that many problems in the world are connected to the short human lifespan. He explained that longer, healthier lives could help people make better long-term decisions for themselves and society.

“Continue Research’s goal is to extend healthy human function long enough that humans stop making short-term decisions,” he wrote.

The project is designed for long-term research into ways to maintain health and function over time. By funding researchers globally, Goyal hopes Continue will produce results that change how humans approach aging and overall health.

What Continue Research Means for the Future of Health

Continue Research is more than a short-term project. Goyal describes it as a long-term effort to support science and innovation in human health. He wrote:

“Our goal here is to become a small catalyst in humanity's journey of conscious evolution. To lead us into the Post-Darwin era.”

The initiative combines research, health tracking, and biology studies. By funding bold ideas, Continue encourages new ways of thinking about aging based on science and measurable results rather than speculation.
