About The Event
*Tickets are sold out*
We live in a time of accelerated exponential change powered by a series of technologies that are allowing humans to do things that were not possible before.
Longevity has been a hot topic for the past few decades. Ray Kurzweil, co-founder of Singularity University, predicts that in 10 years for every year that we live, we will be adding an extra year of life expectancy. In other words, death might be a choice in the future.
But how much of this is real and what are the advances being made in the present?
Join Aikora Health and Singularity University London Chapter for our next talk being hosted by the most prestigious tailoring house on Savile Row “Huntsman” (known as the location for the movie “Kingsman”, and home to archive pieces dating from over 100 years ago). This unique Mayfair location is owned by Pierre Lagrange, co-founder of GLG Partners, and Executive Program 2016 Alumni from Singularity University. The event will also be sponsored by Finastra and Chappuis Halder.
