Our Founding Story

Our founding story

Co-founders Mark Glover and JoAnne Moore met as part of a World Economic Forum and Mercer-sponsored program on Redesigning Retirement for the 100-year Life. They quickly established a strong rapport based on their shared passion for ensuring broad and equitable access to the tools and resources that can help people live better longer lives.

With extensive careers at global institutions – Mark leading the development of wealth solution strategies and technology for millions of banking clients globally and JoAnne in thought leadership, marketing and public policy for multinational organisations – they’ve brought together their individual strengths and perspectives to build an organisation and platform focused on helping all people live the lives they want and deserve.
