Dmitry Kaminskiy, a senior partner of Hong Kong-based firm, Deep Knowledge
Ventures, is hoping his million dollar gift will trigger a new group of
'supercenternarians'.
'We
live in the most exciting era of human development when technologies
become exponential and transformative,' Kaminskiy told DailyMail.com.
'They
may not realise it, but some of the supercentenarians alive today may
see the dawn of the next century if they live long enough for these
transformative technologies to develop.'I
hope that my prize will help some of them desire longer lifespans and
make their approaches to living longer a little more competitive.'
He
says research into stem cells, tissue rejuvenation and regenerative
medicine will allow people to live beyond 120 - an age that has been
quoted as the 'real absolute limit to human lifespan'.
