VISION
Beating cancer by reducing mortality and improving quality of life of people living with cancer
Our vision is that patients with any cancer type will have access to breakthrough treatments that can improve chances of survival without compromising quality of life.

The Swiss Cancer Center Léman, the recognised global leader in immunotherapy, will play a pivotal role in turning our vision into reality across the world.
MISSION

BRIDGE FUNDING GAPS TO BRING RESEARCH TO THE CLINIC FASTER
When it comes to basic research, Switzerland is a global leader. But there is a funding gap to move, or "translate", innovation from basic research to applications that benefit patients and society.
The Impact Cancer Foundation takes a philanthropic approach to change this to bring breakthrough technologies to benefit people faster
ATTRACT TALENT TO THE LÉMAN REGION & ENCOURAGE COLLABORATION
To turn our vision into reality we need exceptional talent to make it happen. This is why we offer direct support to recruit new talent and retain existing talent in the region.
​
The strength of the research within the Swiss Cancer Center Léman will depend on the people essential to run it. And we aim to support this.
