Building longevity bio/acc zones, with our first hub in Roatán in @ProsperaGlobal
✦ community of innovators ✦ accelerating biotech ✦infinita.city Roatán, HondurasJoined August 2024
Five years ago, Free Cities were largely an idea. Today, they are real, functioning places with residents, businesses and a promising future.
This year, from September 3-6, we're finally ready to host our annual conference inside a real, functioning Free City: Próspera on the tropical island of Roatán.
You'll hear from more than a dozen Free City and seasteading projects, as well as practitioners from the global travel and internationalization sector, including Staatenlos, the leading German-language resource on Flag Theory and global mobility, and Settee, its Portuguese-language counterpart.
There are plenty of other exciting activities being planned in the days surrounding the conference, including INFINITA Week: a program of talks, workshops, and networking sessions aimed at founders interested in working with Próspera. Further updates to be published soon.

Longevity is unusually hard to develop because aging is not considered a disease or official “indication.”
That means serious anti-aging interventions cannot simply be sold as supplements, but also do not have a normal regulatory pathway as pharmaceuticals.
In March, I attended @infinitacity 's Liberty Acceleration Summit at @Prosperahn in Honduras.
It focused on startup societies building across the world, and I found it all to be quite uplifting. As I wrote:
“In a world that seems to be at a crossroads, the startup society movement feels like a widening ray of hope—builders looking beyond the redundant, ineffective, sometime corrupt systems in place today and toward futures realizing abundance and an expanse of possibilities.”

We were proud to award the first Liberty Acceleration Award to Octavio Sánchez, the architect of the ZEDEs in Honduras, with @NiklasAnzinger and @erickbrimen
This was also the first time he had ever been able to visit @prosperahn in person.
Under the previous opposition government, coming here could have meant arrest.
So to have him appear as a surprise guest at the Summit and accept the award himself was a pretty extraordinary moment.
It was a reminder that the ideas, legal frameworks, and opportunities people are building on now did not appear overnight.
They were fought for, often at real personal and political cost.
We have a community call coming up!
Wednesday June 3, 2026 · 11AM EST / 9AM Roatán
A virtual hangout to hear what's happening on the ground, what's coming next, and how you can get involved, whether you're onsite or building from wherever you are.
Meet Brody DeVault, he is three years old and has an ultrarare neurodegenerative condition.
I have personally spoken with the biotech whose treatment may save Brody’s brain. They’re interested in sending Brody’s medicine to Montana, but first they need to know “If we help him will we get punished by the FDA?”
Ultimately that’s a question only @FDA_KyleD can answer. FDA can exercise enforcement discretion here, but no one knows whether they will. And without guarantees, companies can’t take the risk.
If they will just guarantee this manufacturer won’t get in trouble, we could treat Brody as soon as June 9th. Without that, the whole supply chain is frozen.
I don’t think the President or @RobertKennedyJr want to stop Brody from getting treatment, and I hope the FDA feels the same way.
IVF parents already choose between embryos.
Now they can also screen for risk:
· schizophrenia,
· autoimmune disorders,
· single-gene diseases.
And in some cases, even traits like IQ and height.
This specially helpful for families with a history of disease.

More people should experience at least one Network State event.
Personally loved staying at @ProsperaGlobal & @infinitacity. The environment feels completely different from traditional conferences.

Network States are communities that bring together builders, founders, researchers, and creatives to live and build together IRL.
They’re extremely valuable for founders because they offer:
→ high quality networking
→ focused
I have a patient with glioblastoma who got halfway through a clinical trial and was seeing great results, only to have his treatment ceased when the trial stopped.
He then spent $10,000 of his own money trying to use Expanded Access, and was denied.
Now, accessing treatment through Montana's SB535 is his last hope. There are biotechs and manufacturers willing to provide treatment, but only if we can get guarantees they won't be punished by @US_FDA for doing so.
I'll be in Washington D.C. with him on the 19th and 20th of this month, if anyone reading this would like to help, please tag your Senator and House Rep and ask them to make some time to meet with us.
Patrick Hiebert, founder and CEO of Autris, also took the stage at this year's Liberty Acceleration Summit. Patrick builds freedom-oriented communities across Latin America and is a longtime supporter of the Free Cities idea and the Free Cities Foundation.
Autris is the company behind Veritas Villages, a network of self-sufficient communities with active sites in Panama, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica—all featured in our Free Cities project directory.
Veritas Villages has recently entered a new phase of expansion, with multiple construction projects underway and a newly acquired $34m site in Costa Rica. Autris has also launched a bitcoin treasury strategy as part of the group's long-term financial planning.
Patrick will also be joining us at this year's Free Cities Conference (September 3–6 in Próspera), alongside a growing line-up of speakers from across the emerging Free Cities industry.
The bottleneck in cancer treatment isn’t just science.
Trials cost billions.
So most treatment combinations are never tested.
Instead of waiting, he started building a new path where patients can access treatments faster and fund their own R&D.
“I’d rather die of a potential cure, than from cancer.”
Patients want survival.
Hospitals minimize liability.
That gap shapes everything.
When standard care runs out, things like personalized treatments and single-patient INDs become the only path.
