Healthspan will shape the next decades. Who will shape healthspan?

Today, people in Switzerland spend on average 13 years with chronic and other severe diseases – and very few know this. During these years, quality of life declines, healthcare costs escalate, work productivity drops, and personal independence is lost.

We believe Switzerland sits on a huge opportunity to increase healthspan – the number of healthy years – from 71 to 76. With its global leadership in life sciences, healthcare, insurance, wealth management, and innovation, and a culture rooted in nature, movement, and quality of life, Switzerland has everything it needs to lead.

Healthspan is a measurable asset for our nation, our employers – and for each individual, one of life’s most valuable assets.

The first Swiss Healthspan Summit brings together stakeholders from science and different industries to initiate the path toward increasing healthspan in Switzerland.

Join us for an afternoon of bold ideas, cross-sector dialogue, and the beginning of something important – followed by apéro and networking with leading Swiss experts.
