Health & Wellbeing

Why organisations work with Helen Lawal Clinical credibility that few wellbeing speakers match: 15 years as an NHS GP, MRCGP, and a postgraduate qualification in nutrition, so the science in the room is hers, not borrowed. A rare specialism in ADHD and AuDHD in women, shaped by a private practice focused on nutrition and sustainable behaviour change for this group. Named ambassador for ADHD UK and trainer on the National Autism Training Programme, so the neurodiversity content is informed by advocacy and training work, not a topic pick-up. Television presenting experience on Channel 4’s Food Unwrapped and How to Lose Weight Well, which translates into a speaker who can hold a large room and explain science without losing it. Lived experience as a late-diagnosed AuDHD woman, which grounds the work in something buyers trust more than a deck. Biography highlights NHS GP with 15 years of clinical experience, MRCGP, MBBS (Hull York Medical School), BSc Sport and Exercise Science (University of Leeds), DFSRH, MNutr. Celebrity Ambassador for ADHD UK (charity number 1188365). Trainer on the National Autism Training Programme. Presenter on Channel 4’s Food Unwrapped; co-presenter of How to Lose Weight Well with Dr Javid Abdelmoneim. Runs a private practice supporting ADHD and AuDHD women with nutrition, eating habits, and sustainable health behaviour change. Media contributor across BBC, ITV’s This Morning, Steph’s Packed Lunch, and BBC Radio Leeds on women’s health, nutrition, and neurodiversity. Biography Most corporate wellbeing content still assumes a neurotypical employee. For the quarter of any workforce that is neurodivergent, and especially for the women diagnosed in their thirties and forties after years of being told they were simply disorganised, the standard advice lands badly. That gap is where Dr Helen Lawal’s work sits. She came to it through clinical practice. Fifteen years as an NHS GP, MRCGP-qualified, with a medical degree from Hull York Medical School and a first degree in sport and exercise science from Leeds, gave her the grounding. A postgraduate qualification in nutrition and a specialism in ADHD turned it into a defined practice area. She now runs a private service for ADHD and AuDHD women focused on eating, energy, and sustainable behaviour change, the areas where standard GP time runs out. The public-facing side has been built in parallel. She presents Channel 4’s Food Unwrapped and co-presents How to Lose Weight Well, work that has trained her to explain food science and weight management to a mainstream audience without losing the evidence base. She is a Celebrity Ambassador for ADHD UK and a trainer on the National Autism Training Programme, which keeps the neurodiversity content anchored in advocacy and training, not marketing. For an organisation, the value is a speaker who can talk credibly to HR, DEI, and wellbeing leads about what actually helps neurodivergent employees, particularly women, and who can do it in a register that works for an all-staff audience as well as a clinical one. Key speaking topics ADHD and AuDHD in women Neurodiversity in the workplace Nutrition and eating behaviour Women’s health and hormones Sustainable weight management Neuroaffirming health and wellbeing Health communication and behaviour change Ideal for HR, DEI, and wellbeing leads designing neuro-inclusive programmes Employee networks and ERGs focused on women’s health, neurodiversity, or both Healthcare, pharma, and insurance organisations briefing clinicians and communicators Conferences and internal events that need a clinician who can present to a non-clinical audience Audience outcomes A clearer picture of how ADHD and AuDHD present in women, and why late diagnosis is common Specific, evidence-based guidance on nutrition and eating behaviour for neurodivergent adults Language and framing for neuroaffirming conversations at work A realistic view of what sustainable behaviour change looks like, separate from diet-industry claims Practical signals managers and HR can use to support neurodivergent colleagues

Why organisations work with Sylvia Marusyk A practising occupational therapist, not a wellness coach, which gives wellbeing content credibility with EHS, operations and unionised audiences who routinely dismiss soft programming. Thirty years of clinical work translated into language that holds a room of utility engineers, nurses, municipal workers and aerospace technicians, not only an HR audience. A repeatable session catalogue covering stress, engagement, respectful conduct and self-health, with named talks that buyers can match to a specific workforce problem. Author of Testing Positive: 365 Days of Calm Through Chaos, written through her own cancer diagnosis, which gives the wellbeing material lived authority rather than borrowed theory. Track record across Manitoba Hydro, Great-West Life, City of Winnipeg, Transport Canada, Health Canada, StandardAero and the Manitoba Nurses Union, so buyers can see the work has held up across regulated, industrial and public sector environments. Biography highlights Founder and owner of MindBody Works Inc., a Canadian workplace health and wellness consultancy. Registered occupational therapist with more than 30 years of practice in health, safety and workplace wellbeing. Author of Testing Positive: 365 Days of Calm Through Chaos, a daily guide written after her cancer diagnosis during the pandemic. Host of the Trigger with Sylvia Marusyk podcast and former host of the Happy Hour with Sylvia radio programme. Speaking and training clients include Manitoba Hydro, Great-West Life, Transport Canada, Health Canada, City of Winnipeg, StandardAero, Manitoba Nurses Union and CAPPA. Signature programmes include Surviving to Thriving, Stressed to Kill, Happy Hour Begins at 9am, Respectfully, Up Yours! and Rules of Engagement. Biography Wellbeing budgets have grown for a decade, yet absence, burnout and turnover keep rising. The problem is not awareness. It is that most workplace health content sits a long way from the physical and cognitive reality of the people actually doing the work, which is precisely the gap Sylvia Marusyk has spent her career closing. She trained as an occupational therapist and has practised in the field for more than thirty years. That clinical grounding shapes everything she does on stage: the body and the brain treated as a single working system, stress described in biochemical and behavioural terms, prevention framed as an operational discipline rather than a lifestyle choice. As founder of MindBody Works Inc., she has built a Canadian workplace health consultancy around that approach. Her session catalogue is unusually concrete for the wellbeing category. Stressed to Kill unpacks the physical, cognitive, emotional and environmental components of stress. Surviving to Thriving offers self-health tools that hold up under pressure. Respectfully, Up Yours! turns psychological safety into a behavioural conversation, and Rules of Engagement tackles retention and engagement. The book Testing Positive: 365 Days of Calm Through Chaos, written through her own cancer diagnosis, supplies the personal spine to the clinical content. The credibility shows up in who books her. Manitoba Hydro, Great-West Life, Transport Canada, Health Canada, the City of Winnipeg, StandardAero and the Manitoba Nurses Union have all put her in front of audiences that are unforgiving of generic wellness talk: engineers, nurses, municipal staff, aerospace technicians. That is the market she has built her work for. Key speaking topics Workplace stress and burnout prevention Employee wellbeing and mental health at work Occupational health and injury prevention Respectful workplace culture and psychological safety Employee engagement and retention Resilience and self-health practices Workplace happiness and work-life conflict Ideal for CHROs, heads of wellbeing and EHS leaders rebuilding stress, absence and injury programmes Operations and safety leaders in utilities, healthcare, aerospace, manufacturing and municipal services Union and member organisations commissioning content for frontline and clinical workforces HR and culture leads addressing respectful conduct, engagement and retention in fatigued teams Audience outcomes A clinical understanding of how stress affects the body, brain and behaviour at work Specific self-health practices audiences can apply during and after the working day Language for naming and addressing disrespectful conduct without escalating it A sharper sense of where wellbeing programmes are working and where they are theatre Renewed energy and humour in rooms that often arrive defensive about wellbeing content

In his 44 years of service as CEO, the natural and organic grocer grew from a single store in Austin, Texas, to 540 stores in the U.S., U.K., and Canada with annual sales exceeding $22 billion and more than 105,000 Team Members. A pioneer of natural and organic foods and a passionate advocate for capitalism as a force for good, Mackey has focused on building a more conscious way of doing business.

A strong believer in free market principles, Mackey co-founded the Conscious Capitalism Movement and co-authored a New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling book entitled Conscious Capitalism: Liberating the Heroic Spirit of Business to boldly defend and reimagine capitalism and encourage a way of doing business that is grounded in ethical consciousness. In his follow-up, Conscious Leadership: Elevating Humanity through Business, Mackey provides a roadmap for innovative, values-based leadership. Mackey has been recognized as one of Fortune’s “World’s 50 Greatest Leaders,” Ernst & Young’s “Entrepreneur of the Year Overall Winner for the United States,” Institutional Investor’s “Best CEO in America,” Barron’s “World’s Best CEO,” MarketWatch’s “CEO of the Year,” and Esquire’s “Most Inspiring CEO,” while Whole Foods Market was named to Fortune’s “100 Best Companies to Work for” list for 20 consecutive years. A mission-driven entrepreneur, Mackey is deeply passionate about the connection between food and health. His business venture, Love.Life, unites the power of nourishing food, holistic medical care, and precision wellness therapies to make optimal, lasting health and vitality achievable.

His book, The Whole Story: Adventures in Love, Life, and Capitalism, invites readers on the adventure of building Whole Foods Market: the colorful cast of idealists and foodies who formed the company’s DNA, the many breakthroughs and missteps, the camaraderie and the conflict, and the narrowly avoided disasters.

Why organisations work with Paula Radcliffe Sixteen years as the women’s marathon world record holder, a span that covers an entire generation of competitors and is unusual in any endurance event. A direct, first-person account of recovering from the most public failure in her career, the 2004 Athens Olympic marathon, and returning to win the New York Marathon four months later and the World Championship the following year. Continuing technical authority on the sport through her BBC commentary role and her seat on the World Athletics Athletics Integrity Unit, which keeps her current with the system she once competed inside. A practical perspective on competing with a chronic condition, asthma, that translates well to executive audiences thinking about health, capacity and long-horizon performance. Biography highlights Held the women’s marathon world record at 2:15:25 from 2003 to 2019. Three-time London Marathon champion (2002, 2003, 2005) and three-time New York Marathon champion (2004, 2007, 2008). 2005 World Marathon champion, Helsinki. Two-time World Cross Country champion. Two-time World Half Marathon champion. BBC Sports Personality of the Year 2002. MBE 2002, OBE 2026, both for services to sport. BBC athletics commentator and member of the World Athletics Athletics Integrity Unit. UN Environment Programme Advocate for Clean Air. Author of “Paula: My Story So Far” (Simon and Schuster, 2004). Biography The 2003 London Marathon women’s world record stood at 2:15:25 for sixteen years. Paula Radcliffe set it. No other woman beat it until 2019. For a generation of elite distance runners that mark defined what the sport thought possible. The interesting story for a business audience is not the record. It is what happened the year after. The 2004 Athens Olympic marathon ended with Radcliffe sitting on the kerb in front of a global television audience, unable to continue. Four months later she won the New York Marathon. The following August she won the World Marathon Championship in Helsinki. The recovery is the content, not the breakdown. She has stayed inside the sport since retiring as a competitor. She commentates on athletics for the BBC, including the Olympic Games and the London Marathon, and sits on the World Athletics Athletics Integrity Unit, which adjudicates anti-doping and eligibility cases. She is a UN Environment Programme Advocate for Clean Air, a role rooted in her own diagnosis of exercise-induced asthma as a teenager. The credentials are unambiguous. MBE in 2002, OBE in the 2026 New Year Honours, BBC Sports Personality of the Year, a first-class degree in modern languages from Loughborough University in 1996 where the running track now carries her name. The autobiography “Paula: My Story So Far” was published by Simon and Schuster in 2004. What a senior buyer is hiring, though, is a specific account of composure under pressure that almost no other speaker can offer at the same level of demonstrable evidence. Key speaking topics Performance under sustained pressure Recovery after public failure Long-horizon goal setting Composure and decision-making in high-stakes moments Competing with a chronic health condition Integrity and accountability in elite systems Women in elite sport Ideal for Leadership offsites focused on resilience, composure and recovery, particularly for executive teams facing a visible setback or restructure. Sales and commercial kick-offs where the brief is sustained performance across a multi-year cycle rather than a single-quarter push. Health, wellbeing and human performance conferences for HR and people leaders. After-dinner and main-stage moments at sports, charity and corporate hospitality events where the brief is a credible elite-performance voice. Audience outcomes A first-person account of recovering from a high-visibility failure and the practical work that recovery required. A concrete sense of what sixteen years of sustained elite performance looks like from the inside, including the planning horizons it depends on. A useful frame for thinking about health, energy and capacity as commercial inputs, not personal extras. A more grounded view of integrity in performance systems, drawn from her work on the World Athletics Athletics Integrity Unit.

Why organisations work with Annabell Fuller A live competitor’s account of decision-making under public pressure, drawn from major championship cuts at Carnoustie and a top-three finish at a USD 5 million LET event, not retrospective reflection from a retired career. Specific, sport-grounded language for what self-leadership looks like in the seconds before a high-stakes call, useful for leaders briefing teams on composure rather than wellbeing. A credible voice on the gap between physical preparation and competitive output, drawn from CrossFit-led conditioning work integrated into a professional golf schedule. A generational perspective on performing in public view at twenty-three, relevant to organisations thinking about early-career talent expected to operate under scrutiny. Biography highlights Ladies European Tour professional since 2024; tied 5th at LET Q-School to earn her card. 3rd place at the PIF Saudi Ladies International 2025, a USD 5 million LET event. Made the cut at the 2021 AIG Women’s Open at Carnoustie as one of only three amateurs that year. Three-time Curtis Cup player for Great Britain and Ireland (2018, 2021, 2022). Two-time European Ladies’ Team Championship gold medallist for England (2021, 2022). 2020 English Women’s Open Amateur Stroke Play Champion; University of Florida NCAA golfer 2020 to 2023. Biography A senior team will commit hundreds of hours of training to a decision that takes two seconds to execute in public. The question of what holds a performer together in that window is rarely treated as a discipline. Annabell Fuller has spent her career inside it. Fuller earned her Ladies European Tour card at Q-School in December 2023 with a tied-5th finish, then spent her rookie 2024 season learning to convert preparation into tour-level scoring. Her strongest result so far, third place at the PIF Saudi Ladies International in 2025, came at a USD 5 million LET event where the field included most of the tour’s established names. The amateur record behind her is the credential most useful to a board audience. She made the cut at the 2021 Women’s British Open at Carnoustie as one of only three amateurs, won the English Women’s Open Amateur Stroke Play Championship in 2020, and represented Great Britain and Ireland three times in the Curtis Cup. At the University of Florida she won the Florida Gator Invitational and reached the world’s top 25 in the amateur rankings. What sits underneath those results, and what she speaks about, is the conditioning behind composure: how a competitor builds a decision process that survives the moment a tournament tightens. The talks lean on CrossFit-integrated physical preparation, public accountability at twenty-three, and the specific discipline of recovering from a poor shot quickly enough to compete on the next one. Key speaking topics Composure and decision-making under public pressure Self-leadership in elite competition Physical preparation and performance conditioning Resilience after setback Team performance in individual sport Early-career performance under scrutiny Ideal for Sales leadership conferences focused on quota delivery under pressure Early-career and high-potential talent programmes inside large organisations Executive offsites built around composure and decision-making rather than strategy Employee networks and ERG events on women in performance environments Audience outcomes A working language for what composure under pressure actually involves, drawn from competition rather than coaching theory. A clearer picture of how physical conditioning links to mental performance in a demanding role. Specific examples of recovering from public setbacks fast enough to perform on the next attempt. A credible account of operating under public scrutiny at the start of a career.

Why organisations work with Mike Bushell Twenty years of live national television experience on BBC Breakfast, which translates directly into the composure conferences and awards need from the person holding the room. A recognisable face from one of the UK’s largest morning audiences and a 2019 Strictly Come Dancing series, which adds warmth and recognition to internal events and client-facing nights. A genuine interactive format, Sport or Spoof, that he runs with corporate audiences using sports drawn from his on-air library, giving organisations a built-in entertainment slot rather than a generic keynote. An on-record body of work on activity, participation and trying-the-untried that lends a credible voice to wellbeing, engagement and active-lifestyle programmes inside organisations. Reporting experience from Olympics, Paralympics and multiple World Cups, which gives him native fluency on stage with athletes, sports federations and sponsorship audiences. Biography highlights Longest-serving sports presenter in BBC Breakfast history, joined the programme in 2006. Has personally tried and profiled more than 550 sports on BBC One, from Quidditch and shin-kicking to Kabaddi with the Indian national team at the Asian Games in Doha. Held a Guinness World Record for travelling across water in an inflatable ball, set for Sport Relief in 2012. Contestant on Strictly Come Dancing series 17 in 2019, partnered with Katya Jones. Has reported on the Olympics, Paralympics, Commonwealth Games and football, rugby and cricket World Cups. Author of Bushell’s Best Bits (2013), drawn from his sports-discovery slot. Career began at BBC Radio Solent in 1990, with earlier reporting roles at the Derby Evening Telegraph and the Windsor and Slough Observer. Biography Live sports presentation on BBC Breakfast is one of the more exposed jobs in UK broadcasting. The presenter takes the chair every Saturday morning, on national television, with no second take. Mike Bushell has held that chair longer than anyone in the programme’s history, joining BBC Breakfast in 2006 after starting his career at BBC Radio Solent in 1990. The on-air work is built around a simple proposition: every week, try a sport. The list now runs past 550 and includes shin-kicking, worm charming, Quidditch, swamp soccer, Rush hockey and Kabaddi with the Indian team at the Asian Games in Doha. The book that came out of it, Bushell’s Best Bits, was published in 2013. The format is the source of the interactive Sport or Spoof game he runs with corporate audiences. The wider reporting CV covers Olympics, Paralympics, Commonwealth Games and football, rugby and cricket World Cups. In 2019 he was a contestant on series 17 of Strictly Come Dancing with Katya Jones, which is the credit most internal-event audiences recognise on sight. For organisations, the offer is straightforward. Bushell hosts conferences, moderates panels, runs awards nights and gives after-dinner talks. When the brief calls for it, he also speaks on activity, participation and getting people off the sofa, drawn directly from the on-air body of work. Key speaking topics Event hosting and conference moderation Awards night presenting Active lifestyles and sports participation Workplace wellbeing through movement Resilience and trying the unfamiliar Sports broadcasting and the Olympic and World Cup beat Interactive audience formats including Sport or Spoof Ideal for Internal conferences, sales kick-offs and all-hands looking for a recognisable host Awards nights and sponsor evenings in sport, media and consumer sectors Wellbeing, HR and people-team programmes built around activity and participation Charity galas, fundraising dinners and sports federation events Audience outcomes A programme run cleanly from the front of the room, with live moments handled without losing the audience A shared moment of entertainment through the Sport or Spoof format, tuned to the audience in the room A direct, lived case for getting more active and the corporate-wellbeing argument that follows Behind-the-scenes anecdotes from Strictly, the Olympics, World Cups and 550 sports on national television

Why organisations work with Kait Borsay A working broadcast journalist on national radio, not a former presenter. Her interview craft is rehearsed live four nights a week on Times Radio, in front of a politically literate audience. Built and sold a media property. She co-founded The Offside Rule, took it to acquisition by The New York Times in 2022, and understands the commercial side of content from the inside. Comfortable across registers, from Invictus Games and the Boat Race to corporate town halls for PWC, Cisco, Capital One and BNY Mellon. She does not have a single mode. Recognised credibility with senior commercial brands as a podcast host, including P&G and EY, where the brief is sustained editorial conversation rather than one-off stage presence. A reporter’s instinct for the awkward question. Her Times Radio editorial agenda covers Long Covid, care home residents’ rights, children’s mental health and neurodiversity in women, themes that demand a host who can hold difficult material without flinching. Biography highlights Presenter, The Evening Edition, Times Radio, Monday to Thursday Co-founder, The Offside Rule, part-acquired by The New York Times in 2022 Former Drivetime host on talkRADIO, presenting alongside Eamonn Holmes Television news experience at Sky News, Reuters and ITN Began career in sports journalism at Sky Sports Corporate hosting clients include PWC, Capital One, Cisco, BNY Mellon, P&G and EY Live event credits include the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race and the Invictus Games The Offside Rule named in the Guardian’s top five sport podcasts; Vogue’s best football podcast of 2018 Biography The Evening Edition on Times Radio runs four nights a week, covering politics, health, education and social affairs. Kait Borsay presents it. The discipline of live national radio, where every interview is unscripted and audience tolerance for filler is zero, shapes how she works on every other stage she steps onto. Her broadcast career started in sport at Sky Sports, and ran through Sky News, Reuters and ITN before her move into long-form audio. In 2012, she co-founded The Offside Rule, a female-fronted football podcast that took ten years to build and was part-acquired by The New York Times in 2022. It featured in the Guardian’s top five sport podcasts and Vogue’s best football podcast list. The corporate work sits alongside the journalism. She hosts and moderates for PWC, Capital One, Cisco and BNY Mellon, and has run brand podcasts for P&G and EY. Live event credits include the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race and the Invictus Games, formats where the host has to carry hours of unscripted broadcast in front of a live audience. What she brings to a corporate stage is the same discipline she applies to Times Radio. A reporter’s prep, a willingness to push past the corporate answer, and a calm register that holds a room when the agenda slips, when a speaker overruns, or when a sensitive subject lands in the middle of the programme. Key speaking topics Event hosting and conference moderation Panel chairing for senior leadership audiences Awards ceremony presenting Live event hosting for sport and broadcast formats Corporate podcast hosting and brand audio Interview-led fireside conversations Mental health, wellbeing and women’s health in editorial conversation Ideal for Corporate communications and events leads commissioning a flagship conference, town hall or AGM Brand and marketing teams are developing a corporate podcast series or long-form audio CHRO and internal communications functions are running sensitive all-staff conversations on health and wellbeing Sports rights holders and sponsors running live broadcasts or hospitality formats Audience outcomes A live event that runs to time and holds executive audience attention across long sessions Panel conversations that move beyond rehearsed answers, with interventions calibrated to the room Sensitive editorial content, mental health, women’s health, lived experience, handled with broadcast judgement A presenter that the audience associates with national-quality journalism rather than generic compering

Why organisations work with Lara Lewington Fourteen years inside BBC Click gives her a first-hand catalogue of which AI and health-tech claims held up and which collapsed, useful for boards trying to triage vendor pitches. Hacking Humanity (Penguin, 2025) is a structured, sourced argument on the technologies extending healthspan, not a survey article, so audiences leave with a thesis rather than a topic tour. Formal study in the Ethics of AI at the London School of Economics, layered onto her broadcast work, makes her a credible voice in governance and risk conversations, not only product showcases. She is regularly trusted to host the main stage at AI Summit London, Founders Forum, London Tech Week and the Royal Academy of Engineering, which means she moves comfortably between keynote and high-stakes moderation in the same event. Long-form access to the people building this technology, from Silicon Valley founders to NHS clinicians, lets her describe what is actually being deployed rather than what is being announced. Biography highlights Co-presenter of BBC Click, the corporation’s flagship technology programme, for seven years until the show ended in March 2025; reporter on the programme from 2011. Author of Hacking Humanity: How technology can save your health and your life (Penguin, WH Allen, July 2025). Fronted BBC Panorama’s “Beyond Human: Artificial Intelligence and Us” and BBC One documentary “Forever Young?” on biological age reversal. AI Agony Aunt on ITV’s Lorraine since 2023; recurring technology commentator on Good Morning Britain, Woman’s Hour and BBC Radio 5 Live. Studied Ethics of AI at the London School of Economics; Senior Fellow at the John Schofield Trust mentoring early-career journalists. Host and moderator at AI Summit London, Founders Forum Global, LEAP Tech Arena, London Tech Week and the Royal Academy of Engineering. Biography Most boardroom conversations about artificial intelligence and health technology run aground on the same problem. The pace of announcement outstrips the pace of verification. Lara Lewington has spent 14 years inside the programme that, more than any other in British broadcasting, exists to do that verification on the public’s behalf: BBC Click. She reported for the show from 2011, co-presented from 2018 with Spencer Kelly, and stayed until the programme ended in March 2025. Hacking Humanity (Penguin, July 2025) takes the same instinct into book form. It examines the AI, gene editing and robotics now reshaping medicine, with a clear thesis: the meaningful prize is healthspan, the years lived in good health, not raw lifespan. Endorsed by Lorraine Kelly, Davina McCall and Dr Amir Khan, it draws on access from Silicon Valley founders to NHS clinicians, and frames where the science is real, where it is premature, and where the ethical exposure sits. The AI ethics work is anchored by formal study at the London School of Economics and a steady stream of fronted documentaries: Panorama’s “Beyond Human: Artificial Intelligence and Us”, BBC One’s “Forever Young?”, ITV’s “Tonight: Healthy Ageing”, and BBC Radio 4’s “A Documentary: By ChatGPT”. She is the AI Agony Aunt on ITV’s Lorraine, a regular voice on Good Morning Britain and Woman’s Hour, and a Senior Fellow at the John Schofield Trust. Event organisers book her for two distinct jobs. She delivers keynotes on AI ethics, the human impact of automation and the healthspan revolution. She also hosts and moderates the main stage at AI Summit London, Founders Forum Global, LEAP Tech Arena, London Tech Week and the Royal Academy of Engineering, where the brief is to interview a chief executive or scientist and keep the conversation honest in real time. Key speaking topics Artificial intelligence and its human impact AI ethics and responsible deployment Health technology and the healthspan economy Longevity science and biological age Wearables, diagnostics and consumer health data The role of robotics in care and clinical settings Technology hype versus evidence Ideal for Boards and executive teams setting AI policy and digital health strategy CHROs, chief medical officers and benefits leaders shaping workforce health programmes Health, life sciences and pharma leadership audiences tracking the AI inflection in their sector Conference organisers needing a credible host or moderator for AI, health-tech and innovation main-stage sessions Audience outcomes A clear read on which AI and health-tech claims are evidence-backed and which are still vendor narrative A working vocabulary for healthspan, longevity science and the technologies driving them Sharper questions to put to internal teams and external suppliers on AI ethics and data governance A grounded view of how rapidly diagnostic and preventive technology is moving from research into mainstream use
