Global Wellness Summit Unveils Packed 3-Day Agenda for 2025 Conference in Dubai, November 18–21

 

This year’s conference represents a first: it brings together an extraordinarily diverse array of experts for a high-level, “get real” exploration of how longevity and healthspan will transform medicine and biotech, traditional wellness, technology, travel and hospitality, real estate, beauty, and more––and how breaking down the siloes in longevity is the future

 

Miami, FL – October 15, 2025 –The Global Wellness Summit^TM (GWS), the most influential conference for the multitrillion-dollar wellness industry, has released the full agenda for its 19th annual conference taking place November 18-21 at the Mandarin Oriental in Downtown Dubai.

With so much noise––and siloes between sectors and approaches––in the longevity space, this year’s Summit will do something unique and much-needed: gather high-profile thinkers from across the medicine, biotech, tech, experimental biohacking, traditional wellness, sports and fitness, travel and hospitality, and real estate sectors to have an open, evidence-grounded, silo-smashing, think-tank-like forum on the most promising science and innovations in longevity––to forge a more powerfully integrated medical-wellness future. Over 60 expert speakers will include pioneers who’ve been in the longevity research trenches for decades, as well as leaders and scientists from emerging startups.

More than 500 doctors, scientists, C-suite wellness executives, investors and policymakers, from over 50 nations, will be immersed in three days of keynotes, panels and new research presentations that have been curated not to simply ride the longevity wave, but to positively redirect it.

Mumbai, Oct. 14, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) today announced the listing of its subsidiary, LG Electronics India Limited (LGEIL), on the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE). The milestone marks an important step in the LGEIL’s ambition to become a national corporation of India while reinforcing its role as a long-term partner in the country’s economic growth.

 

On October 14, LG held a listing and future vision announcement ceremony at NSE in Mumbai, attended by LG Electronics CEO William Cho, CFO Chang-tae Kim, managing director of LGEIL Hong-ju Jeon, board chairman Dae-hyun Song, as well as NSE CEO Ashish Chauhan, investors and analysts. At the market’s opening bell, LG CEO Cho and NSE CEO Chauhan jointly rang the ceremonial gong to celebrate the start of trading for LGEIL.

In the IPO, LG offered 15 percent of LGEIL’s issued shares (101,815,859 shares) through an offer for sale. The IPO price was set at the top of the indicative range at INR 1,140 per share, with subscriptions reaching 54 times the total offering. The listing generated approximately USD 1.31 billion  (INR 116.05 billion).

With the listing, LGEIL becomes more deeply rooted in India. LG anticipates that this development will support its growth in a market where rising incomes and expanding middle-class households are creating strong momentum in appliance adoption. According to Boston Consulting Group, the proportion of Indian households in the middle-income bracket (annual income USD 6,000–36,000) is forecast to rise from 29 percent in 2020 to 46 percent by 2030.

“India is now at the center of our Global South strategy,” said William Cho, CEO of LG Electronics. “We look forward to advancing the growth of both LG and LGEIL.”

Future Vision: Make for India, Make in India, Make India Global

Alongside its market debut, LG presented a long-term vision to build on its leadership in India and strengthen its position. With India’s population and its status as one of the world’s largest potential markets, LG plans to expand strategies tailored to local customers and market needs. Through this, LG aims to maintain its current position as number one player in major home appliances and consumer electronics  in India as per the market share in the offline channel.

The first vision, “Make for India”, emphasizes creating products tailored to Indian lifestyles and needs.

In addition to its existing plants in Noida and Pune, the company is investing INR 50.01 billion in a new factory in Sri City, expected to create 1,900 direct and indirect jobs.

Lastly, “Make India Global” builds on this foundation to position India as a key driving force within LG’s Global South strategy, which focuses on unlocking growth opportunities across emerging markets amid rapidly evolving geo-economic dynamics. Through this initiative, LG aims to help advance India’s transition from a fast-growing market to a recognized hub of innovation, manufacturing and talent.

By empowering local industries, strengthening value chains and fostering technological capabilities, LG seeks to enable India to showcase its excellence on the world stage – from advanced manufacturing and R&D to technology exports and sustainable development. Ultimately, the company aspires to grow alongside India, supporting its rise as a global economic leader while reinforcing its own standing as a trusted national company that represents India’s potential to the world.

"The maritime sector of India is also aligned with the vision of Viksit Bharat@2047, and by 2047, we aim to witness large-scale investments, world-class infrastructure, and enhanced global competitiveness across our blue economy. This opens vast avenues for international collaboration, including a 1 trillion US dollars maritime investment roadmap," Shri Sonowal further said.
