Cure Thalassemia

Cure Thalassemia vision is to cure (becoming thalassemia free, so no more transfusions) with Bone Marrow Transplantation (BMT) as many thalassemia major patients as possible, who can’t afford the cost of the cure, through the cross-subsidization business model. Prof. Guido Lucarelli (the inventor of BMT) is the scentific advisor. Dr. Pietro Sodani is co-founder and scientific coordinator. It is a Social Business (as defined by by the 7 principles of the Nobel Prize Yunus), a non-loss, non-dividend company designed to address a social problem, and not to look for profit maximization. The investors cannot take any dividend; it is financially self-sustainable, without relying on donors’ money.
