What is the Mission10X North Star?

The Mission10X North Star is to deliver transformational impact for healthcare globally, including prevention, moving care closer to home and improving quality across primary, secondary and tertiary care.

How does Mission10X govern recommendations and accreditation?

Mission10X states that recommendations and accreditation should be evidence based, transparent, mission aligned and supported by public reporting of impact and progress.

Mission10X Governance

Governing Principles for healthcare innovation that changes the curve.

Q: What are the Mission10X governing principles?

The Mission10X governing principles define how the ecosystem prioritises transformational healthcare impact, evidence based validation, transparent governance, global relevance and mission aligned decision making.

Mission10X exists to support healthcare solutions that can deliver measurable, evidence-based, globally relevant impact, not marginal improvement or innovation theatre.

Our North Star

Deliver transformational impact for healthcare globally, removing the need for care through prevention, changing the location of care from hospital to home where appropriate, and improving the quality of care across primary, secondary and tertiary care.

Find the solutions that change the curve among the noise, with transformation rather than marginal gains as the standard.
Support faster adoption and scaling of solutions with complementary talent, funding, pilot trial sites and implementation support.
Deliver faster, higher quality evidence-based validation so solutions can move to impact and scale faster.
Accelerate scaling across health systems that need high impact solutions most globally.
Treat the Global South and Global North as equally important when judging relevance, deployment and impact.

What this means in practice

Mission10X is guided by a simple idea: healthcare innovation should be judged by whether it can create measurable, scalable improvement in real health systems, not by how impressive it looks in a pilot, pitch deck or press release.

Guiding principles.

The principles below translate the North Star into practical filters for selection, validation, adoption and scale.

Stay Left

Prioritise prevention, early intervention and proactive care so health systems are not only responding when people are already in crisis.

Shift Left

Move care closer to home where it is safe, effective and more accessible, reducing pressure on hospitals while improving patient experience.

10X Impact

Focus on solutions capable of step-change improvement in outcomes, access, efficiency, quality, safety, equity or cost, not marginal gains.

Evidence Over Hype

Cut through the noise by prioritising evidence-based, high-impact innovations that can be validated, accredited and adopted at scale.

Equity and Global Relevance

Support solutions that can reach underserved populations, work across different health system contexts, and remain relevant in the Global South as well as the Global North.

Practicality With Purpose

Back ideas that can be implemented in real care settings, with the workflow fit, governance, partnerships and operating model needed to create change.

Accountability

Measure what happens after adoption, report transparently, and keep learning as solutions move from validation to deployment and scale.

Mission-Aligned Decisions

Make mission-aligned impact fundamental to every recommendation, accreditation decision, partnership and funding pathway.

Build for Tomorrow

Align to and support the initiatives today that can transform tomorrow.

Governance.

Mission10X governance is designed to protect trust, support transparency and maintain focus on measurable impact.

Ethical operating principles

Work in line with the Health Impact Charter and ethical operating principles, with transparency of decision making.

Public reporting

Provide clear public reporting of overall impact, progress, improvements in outcomes, cost and other meaningful measures.

Exceptional advisory support

Convene an exceptional Advisory Board to support the vision, challenge assumptions and maintain values.

Evidence-based accreditation

Ensure recommendations and accreditation are evidence-based, credible and connected to real world adoption.

High level objective areas.

Mission10X prioritises approaches that can reduce pressure on health systems while improving outcomes, access and quality.

Move care closer to home

Move care closer to the home and into the home where possible.

Enhance access to healthcare

Improve access to care, especially where capacity, geography, cost or system fragmentation creates barriers.

Support prevention

Support prevention in general, and preventing or slowing chronic disease progression in particular.

Enable early identification and intervention

Identify risk earlier, intervene sooner and reduce avoidable harm, cost and pressure on downstream services.

Frequently asked questions.

Clear answers for healthcare leaders, innovators, payers, funders and partners assessing how Mission10X makes decisions.

What are the Mission10X governing principles?

The governing principles define how Mission10X chooses, validates, supports and scales healthcare innovations. They prioritise transformational impact, evidence, transparency, accountability and global relevance.

What does “change the curve” mean?

It means prioritising solutions with potential for meaningful, measurable improvement in healthcare outcomes, access, efficiency, quality, safety, equity or cost, rather than small incremental gains.

Why does Mission10X focus on prevention and moving care closer to home?

Prevention and care closer to home can reduce avoidable pressure on hospitals, improve patient experience, support earlier intervention and help health systems use capacity more effectively.

How does Mission10X avoid innovation hype?

Mission10X focuses on evidence, real world validation, workflow fit, implementation feasibility, measurable impact and transparent governance rather than relying on claims, demos or isolated pilots.

Why are the Global South and Global North both included?

Healthcare transformation needs solutions that can work across different systems, infrastructure levels, populations and resource contexts. Mission10X treats global relevance as a core principle rather than an afterthought.

How do the governing principles connect to accreditation?

The principles guide how Mission10X evaluates evidence, safety, implementation readiness, impact and scalability when considering solutions and pilot trial accreditation.

Build healthcare innovation around evidence, accountability and measurable impact.

Work with Mission10X to align promising healthcare solutions with the principles, validation pathways and ecosystem support needed for adoption and scale.
