Life Backup Plan Earns “Great Potential” Recognition for Second Consecutive Year
Life Backup Plan has received a “Great Potential” assessment through the Pepperdine Graziadio Business School Most Fundable Companies® program for the second consecutive year.
The company earned the distinction following Pepperdine’s evaluation of its 2026 submission, building upon the same “Great Potential” result received in 2025. The repeated assessment provides independent validation of Life Backup Plan’s business opportunity and progress as the company prepares for organizational growth and outside investment.
The Pepperdine Most Fundable Companies program evaluates eligible U.S. startups on factors associated with investor readiness, including market opportunity, financial projections, competitive positioning, intellectual property, and management-team strength.
Life Backup Plan advanced through the program’s initial prescreening stage and was invited to complete its detailed Quarter-Finals Survey. The resulting evaluation again placed the company within Pepperdine’s “Great Potential” category.
“Receiving a ‘Great Potential’ assessment for the second year in a row is especially encouraging because Life Backup Plan has advanced considerably since our first evaluation,” said Founder and CEO Sandy Eulitt. “Our platform, positioning, market strategy, organizational pipeline, and plans for scale have all become substantially stronger. The result reinforces our belief that we are building a highly valuable company around an enormous and largely unmet need.”
Building a New Category in Health and Safety Technology
Life Backup Plan is an Interoperable Lifecare Platform™ that connects the people, information, resources, and support systems affecting an individual’s health and safety.
Guided by the philosophy “One Person. One Record. One Platform,” Life Backup Plan brings together the Five M’s of Health and Safety™: Monitoring, Medicine, Metrics, Money, and Membership.
The platform addresses the fragmentation individuals and families encounter when trying to coordinate personal health information, emergency preparedness and response, daily wellness and symptom tracking, family monitoring, community assistance, home access information, and Critical Documents organization.
Rather than forcing people to act as the systems integrator for their own care, safety, and critical information, Life Backup Plan is creating a secure, person-centered infrastructure capable of serving consumers, healthcare organizations, employers, government agencies, educational institutions, nonprofits, and other organizations.
About Pepperdine Most Fundable Companies
The Pepperdine Graziadio Most Fundable Companies program is an annual startup assessment and recognition initiative offered by Pepperdine University’s Graziadio Business School.
The no-cost program is open to eligible privately held U.S. companies ranging from pre-revenue startups to businesses with as much as $10 million in annual revenue. Its purpose is both educational and evaluative, helping founders understand the characteristics investors consider when assessing early-stage companies.
Participating companies begin with a prescreening process and Quarter-Finals Survey. Each company completing the Quarter-Finals Survey receives customized analysis identifying its strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities to improve its attractiveness to angel and venture investors.
Approximately 100 companies advance to the Semi-Finals, approximately 30 reach the Finals, and roughly 15 to 20 are ultimately selected for Pepperdine’s annual Most Fundable Companies list.
Life Backup Plan’s “Great Potential” result is an assessment received through the program and should not be interpreted as placement on the final Most Fundable Companies list.
Strengthening Life Backup Plan’s Investment Readiness
The 2026 evaluation arrives as Life Backup Plan expands its organizational sales strategy, develops new strategic partnerships, pursues healthcare and public-sector opportunities, and prepares for its next stage of financing.
Receiving the same positive assessment in two successive years supports the company’s growing collection of external validation from respected business accelerators, entrepreneurship programs, pitch competitions, and industry organizations.
It also gives Life Backup Plan a valuable benchmark as the company continues strengthening the elements investors examine most closely, including revenue generation, market traction, scalability, competitive differentiation, intellectual property, and management capacity.
