Rejuvenation Startup Summit 2024 announces first set of speakers

Largest in-person gathering of CEOs from the worldwide rejuvenation longevity biotech sector readies for Berlin.

The Forever Healthy Foundation has announced the first set of speakers for its Rejuvenation Startup Summit 2024.

Longevity.Technology: Taking place in Berlin, Germany from 10-11 May 2024, the Rejuvenation Startup Summit is a key event in the longevity calendar. A busy networking event, it brings together startups and members of the longevity venture capital/investor ecosystem who are all aiming to create therapies to vastly extend the healthy human lifespan. Rejuvenation and longevity are rapidly accelerating spaces dedicated to preventing, slowing and reversing the diseases of aging by addressing their common root cause – the aging process itself.

In addition to an exciting range of presentations from CEOs of startups in the fields of rejuvenation and longevity, the summit features an all-day startup forum for networking, panel discussions and keynote presentations. Starting midday on Friday and finishing off on Saturday night with a party for all attendees, the summit offers ample opportunity to connect with some of the most promising leaders in the field.
