Healthy Ageing Summit comes to Dubai on 25 November
Dubai’s first Healthy Ageing Summit lands at Mandarin Oriental Jumeira on 25 November, with doctors, scientists and sports stars sharing longevity advice.
The one-day event looks at which health tests are worth paying for, whether ageing can be slowed, and how to stay mentally sharp in later life.
Living longer is one goal. Staying well for those extra years is another, and that second question is the focus of a new event arriving in Dubai this month.
The inaugural Healthy Ageing Summit, presented by KT LUXE, takes place on Wednesday 25 November at Mandarin Oriental Jumeira. Built around the theme “Live Better. For Longer.”, it aims to turn the latest longevity research into advice people can use in daily life.
Why it matters now
Longevity has moved from niche science to mainstream conversation, with new tests, supplements and treatments arriving almost weekly. It can be hard to tell what is useful from what is hype. According to the organisers, Dubai has made longevity a strategic priority for the coming decade, and the summit sets out to answer the questions many people are already asking:
- Which health tests are worth your time and money?
- Can ageing actually be slowed?
- How do we stay mentally sharp as we get older?
Across the day, sessions will cover the biomarkers worth tracking and which new treatments live up to their promise.
Who is speaking
The line-up brings together physicians, business leaders, policymakers and sports figures from the UAE and abroad, including:
- Dr Mishkat Shehata, one of the UAE’s leading voices on longevity
- Brett Lee, the Australian cricket legend
- Dr Elie Abirached, a Harvard-trained healthy ageing strategist
- Dr Adeel Khan, a UK-based regenerative medicine physician
- Jan Gerber, founder and CEO of Paracelsus Recovery, a rehabilitation clinic for high-net-worth clients
