How to live longer? Experiences from Scandinavia and Hungary
*Ez az esemény angolul lesz. / This event will be in English!*
Thanks to medical and technological advances, life expectancy of Hungarians has grown 7 years in only 50 years, and people born today will probably celebrate their 100th birthday. At the same time, the western world is getting sicker: obesity, heart disease and diabetes take hundreds of lives each year.
How can we stay healthy for longer and be happier, while respecting the environment? We will show you the latest trends about how the scientific and business world tries to find solutions in Scandinavia, and how you can benefit from it.
Join the conversation on 25th October, at 7 pm in the Impact Hub Budapest!
