Wellness and Longevity
Exploring what it means to live well for longer.
Living longer is only part of the story. As life expectancy increases, the bigger question becomes how we can maintain our health, independence, relationships, and sense of purpose throughout later life.
The Wellness & Longevity platform brings together members, experts, researchers, and innovators to explore the practical and personal sides of healthy aging.
Through forums, panel discussions, workshops, and member conversations, we examine what helps people not only live longer, but live better.
Supporting strength, movement, independence, and confidence throughout later life.
Maintaining mobility and independence can have a major impact on how we experience later life. The Aging, Fitness & Mobility platform explores how physical activity, fitness, preventative approaches, technology, and accessible environments can support people as they age.
