Why Switzerland and Florida?
Switzerland has spent nearly a century perfecting the science and luxury of longevity; Florida is rapidly becoming the most dynamic laboratory for regenerative medicine and wellness in the US, with new legislation opening the door for carefully regulated stem-cell and regenerative applications.
This private Swiss–American Longevity Roundtable brings the capital, the science, and the builders into one room: top investors, founders, clinicians, and policymakers shaping the future of healthspan, regenerative medicine, and next-generation wellness.
During the highly anticipated Wellist Week, we will explore how Swiss and Florida longevity scientists, clinics, biotech, and high-end wellness brands can use Florida as their gateway into the Americas — while investors gain direct access to some of the world's most advanced, evidence-based longevity and wellness capabilities.
Expect high-quality conversations and deal-oriented introductions, designed for people who are serious about building and backing the next decade of the longevity economy.
