About

The Mark Foundation for Cancer Research actively partners with scientists, research institutions, and philanthropic organisations around the world to accelerate research that will transform the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. Founded in 2017, The Mark Foundation recently received an additional $500 million commitment to continue funding innovative basic, translational, and clinical cancer research, including drug discovery. The Mark Foundation also has a robust and growing portfolio of investments in oncology companies developing novel therapeutics and diagnostics.

The Mark Foundation first supported Cancer Grand Challenges in 2019 and the multi-million-pound investment from the New York-based philanthropic group is its largest partnership with a UK organisation to date.
