Global Wellness Summit to connect wellness, creativity
The Global Wellness Summit (GWS), which will bring together international leaders to positively shape the future of the wellness industry from November 13-15 at The St. Regis Mexico City, has put creativity at the top of its agenda.
“Mexico City teems with creative and artistic expression and we want to share that with our delegates both on the main stage and during our gala evening events,” said Susie Ellis, chair and CEO of the Global Wellness Summit.
“We know art and culture play a major role in balanced, happy societies and overall wellness, and our goal is to keep attendees firmly in touch with their creative selves.”
This year’s Summit, co-chaired by Gina Diez Barroso, president and CEO of Grupo Diarq, a Mexico City-based firm whose vision is to promote and develop Mexican creativity, and Alfredo Carvajal, President of Delos International, will bring art, culture and creativity into sharp focus.
“Wellness and the arts/creativity are two major industries that are growing exponentially. And if you put them together the world would be a better place in which to live,” said Barroso. “I am sure that the Global Wellness Summit can help make this happen.”
Among the highlights on an agenda that includes Barroso’s keynote on “The Business of Creativity, and Creativity in Business” will be a private performance by the Ballet Folklórico de Mexico, a world-renowned troupe of traditional Mexican folk dancers that was founded in the 1950s and captures the heart and spirit of indigenous cultures before the arrival of the Spanish. The performance will take place during a gala event at the Palacio de Bellas Artes.
Cirque du Soleil’s Martin Boudreau will also present on the uniquely creative style of his company, and share his future plans for integrating wellness and entertainment. Meanwhile, Jose Rivelino Moreno, a Mexican sculptor whose work represents the perfect marriage of art and wellness, will share his installations and his global work focused on “Healing the World Through Art.”
