About Simon Lord

Dementia devastates lives, innovation transforms them. At Alzheimer’s Society, we support and invest in innovations to address the challenges people affected by dementia face today, while our world-class research helps to deliver the treatments of tomorrow. I lead a team which is at the forefront of dementia innovation, delivering earlier, more accurate diagnosis; more choice and control; faster access to care, support and treatment; and a better quality of life for people affected by dementia. My previous role at Cancer Research UK refined my expertise in innovation delivery, research commissioning, and cross-organizational collaboration, leveraging agile methodologies to develop actionable strategies and products. Combining strategic leadership skills with a passion for impactful change, my current role is dedicated to empowering new businesses and fostering solutions that address real-world challenges.
