Dates: 2–4 September 2025
The Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC) will host the flagship wellness, sport and longevity summit of the World Health Expo, bringing together global and South African leaders in medicine, sport, nutrition and human optimisation at Thrive by WHX. This year’s programme focuses on core themes emerging in human health across longevity science, youth wellness and mental resilience. Speakers across all three days will demonstrate how personalised medicine, wearable data, AI platforms and preventative models are transforming healthcare and performance. Thrive opens with the World Longevity Summit, a two-day programme exploring how science, technology and medicine can extend not just lifespan but health span. In parallel, Thrive’s Youth Wellness and High-Performance Pathways Conference will spotlight the next generation of African athletes. Thrive by WHX will also partner with HYROX to bring the global fitness phenomenon to Cape Town. Over three high-energy days, attendees can participate in interactive classes, partner activations with F45, and inspiring athlete talks from names like Carla Molinaro and Vicky MacIntosh. Attendees can win a fully paid trip to HYROX New York. Registration is free for visitors and delegates. To find out more and register for Thrive by WHX, visit www.worldhealthexpo.com.
