Living Longer vs. Living Well

​Longevity is having a moment - biomarker testing, breakthrough geroscience, a growing industry built around adding years to life. But some of the strongest evidence for living longer and better isn't coming out of a lab at all - it's very low tech - walkable neighborhoods, strong social ties, real food access, and communities designed for people to age well in place.

​This month at MIX, we’re asking: Where is longevity science genuinely delivering? What's already working at the community level, and what would it take to scale it? And where should we stay skeptical?

​Join us for MIX, a monthly gathering designed to spark collaboration, share ideas, and strengthen our innovation community. Startup, Policy, Industry, Academia, Creatives, Entrepreneurs, researchers, civic leaders, and ecosystem partners come together to explore a rotating theme through lightning talks, small-group conversations, and informal networking.

​Whether you're launching a new venture, driving scientific discovery, or building community infrastructure, MIX is a space to connect, learn, and grow. Enjoy happy hour bites, meaningful dialogue, and the chance to get inspired by others shaping the future in and around our region.
