UniCredit Longevity Economic Forum 2025

Get set for the long run

The UniCredit Longevity Economic Forum 2025 is convening international, primarily European, thought leaders, business owners, and executives, as well as institutional representatives and policymakers. They will share their insights and experiences of the short and long-term impact of increasing lifespans from a business, economic, investment, and financial perspective.

'The longevity economy is not just about living longer - it's about thriving in an extended lifespan, reshaping industries, investment strategies, and the very fabric of society.'

(Michael Spence, Nobel Laureate in Economic Sciences, Professor and Dean Emeritus,

Stanford Graduate School of Business, Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford)

The UniCredit Longevity Economic Forum will take place on 28 May 2025, in the historical surroundings of the Italian Stock Exchange building in the very heart of Milan, Italy.

This one-day event is invitation only and not open to the public. Please contact your UniCredit representative if you would like to attend.

The UniCredit Longevity Economic Forum 2025 will be a unique opportunity to network with longevity experts, senior institutional investors, policy makers, and global business leaders to get ahead of a macro trend that is already impacting all areas of business, investment and public policy.
