Global Wellness Summit Heads to Israel

Registration is open for the 14th annual Global Wellness Summit (GWS), scheduled to take place November 10-13, 2020, in Tel Aviv, Israel. The invitation-only conference, where global leaders come together to shape the future of the $4.5 trillion global wellness economy, has previously been held in destinations including Austria, Bali, India, Mexico, Morocco, Singapore, Switzerland, Turkey and the U.S. “We’re thrilled … that the Summit will take place in this extraordinary location—one with deep spiritual significance and also firm roots in wellness, including its proximity to the Dead Sea, one of the earliest known wellness destinations,” says GWS chair and CEO Susie Ellis.

Companies already on board as host sponsors include Welltech1, a wellness innovation hub and microfund in Tel Aviv; Comtecgroup, an international event production company specializing in medical/scientific conferences; and Geneva-based luxury beauty brand L.RAPHAEL and R.RAPHAEL. Noting that Israel is home to the highest concentration of start-ups after Silicon Valley—and therefore often referred to as “The Start-Up Nation”—the GWS will also include an Innovation Pavilion where delegates can meet with a variety of wellness industry start-ups from around the world.
