Adam Gries
Founder Of The Vitalism Movement And The World's First "Longevity City"
A representative of a radical approach to longevity and the founder of the Vitalist movement. In his view, death is not an inevitable fate, but an engineering problem to be solved. On a Honduran island, he and his partners have established the world’s first “longevity city,” where the most advanced gene therapies and biohacking solutions are made available to members of the community, while also experimenting with a new political model, the network state. At this year's Brain Bar, he will debate with Gábor Orbán, CEO of Richter, his much-discussed idea that the biotechnology revolution and a more flexible regulatory environment could together extend human life by decades, and fundamentally reshape the way we think about human existence.
