NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Invivyd, Inc. (Nasdaq: IVVD) today announced a partnership with renowned ski champion Lindsey Vonn to elevate public understanding of antibodies, one of the most important parts of the immune system, and their role in preventing disease. A national multimedia education campaign is planned to launch in early Spring 2026.

Known as one of the world’s most decorated and successful ski racers, Vonn is the only American woman ever to win Olympic downhill gold and has amassed 84 World Cup victories (which ranks third all-time worldwide among men or women), 138 World Cup podium finishes, eight World Championship medals, and 20 World Cup titles, including four Overall World Cup Crystal Globes. Vonn retired in 2019 and has since mounted an inspiring comeback. Vonn returned to competition in 2024, rejoined the U.S. Ski Team and, in December, qualified for Downhill for the Milan Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games.

Vonn will serve as the public‑facing spokesperson for Invivyd’s education initiative, helping to connect antibody science with broader conversations around health and wellness. Additional details about the campaign will be shared at launch.

“Americans deserve more information and choices about how to stay healthy, especially in light of our ongoing national discussion on prevention of infectious disease. Partnering with Lindsey Vonn will expand awareness of antibody science in a way that is relatable, understandable, and trustworthy,” said Marc Elia, Chairman of Invivyd’s Board of Directors. “Lindsey’s extraordinary work ethic, inspiring comeback, and dedication to personal well‑being make her a compelling voice for this effort. We look forward to working together and wish her the very best as she prepares for the upcoming competitions. We are cheering for Lindsey, and we are proud to partner with an awe-inspiring role model.”

“My athletic career has been about maximizing the potential of what my body can do: training hard, recovering smart, and learning to listen when it tells me something. My entire job is to take care of my body — I can’t afford to get sick,” said Lindsey Vonn. “That is why Invivyd’s mission to advance antibody science resonates with me, and I’m excited to collaborate with them on this important educational initiative. This movement is about helping everyone understand the potential to enhance their immune system, including antibody protection. Health shouldn’t be confusing or intimidating. It should be empowering.”
