What's changed in the business of health this year: Tim Gray opens Business Day with the state of play, where the money, attention and opportunity have moved, and how to work the day: which stages, which sessions, who to find in the room. Ten minutes that set up everything that follows. Tim Gray, founder of the Health Optimisation Summit. Doors open. Go.

Growing from zero to a paying audience has never been faster, if you use AI the way the top creators actually use it. John Lee went from washing dishes in his parents' restaurant to millions of followers and multiple seven-figure businesses, and this is the blueprint he teaches. If your content gets ignored and your offer gets scrolled past, start here. Walk out with: - The AI content system that turns one idea into a month of posts, without sounding like a robot - The follower-to-revenue bridge: how attention becomes £20k months, step by step - Exactly what to post in your first 90 days, platform by platform, from zero John Lee, co-founder and CEO of Wealth Dragons, self-made millionaire at 27, author of Business Hack, millions of followers, and a speaker who has shared stages with Tony Robbins and Richard Branson in front of thousands worldwide. From dishwasher to the world's biggest stages. The blueprint is the point.

A paying community is the most valuable asset in health: harder to copy than any product, worth more than any ad budget. These two have built them on two continents. Mazen Karnaby turned a melanoma diagnosis into Zenos Health and the Middle East's first longevity summit. Tim Gray built the community you're standing in. No script: what worked, what failed, what they'd never do again. Then the floor opens to your questions. If you're building a brand, an event or a community in health, take notes. Walk out with: - How to build a community people pay to belong to, from two founders who've done it from zero - Which growth moves actually compounded for them, and the expensive mistakes to skip entirely - How to turn a personal health story into a brand people trust and buy from Mazen Karnaby: pharmacist, founder of Cedra Pharmacy, CEO of Zenos Health, creator of the Middle East's first longevity summit. Tim Gray: founder of the one you're in. Two builders, zero script.

The longevity gold rush is already here: clinics, diagnostics, supplements and AI health are pulling in billions, and the next five years decide who owns the category. Phil Newman has the best seat in the industry, his platform tracks every deal, launch and trial before the wider market hears about them. This talk is the map. If you're building, backing or practising anything in health, this hour tells you where to stand before the wave lands. Walk out with: - Which longevity products, services and clinic models are about to boom, so you build or back the right thing before it's obvious - How to tell a real longevity business from a hype vehicle before you put money, time or your name into one - Exactly where to position your brand, clinic or career in the next twelve months, as a founder, investor or practitioner Phil Newman, founder and CEO of Longevity.Technology, the industry's leading news and market-intelligence platform, 25 years at C-level in emerging tech. He watches the whole board. For one hour, so do you.

Raising money isn't about chasing investors. It's about becoming the founder they chase, and this panel sits on the other side of the table for a living. They open the playbook in public: what makes them lean in, and what makes them pass inside thirty seconds. If a raise is anywhere in your next eighteen months, be in this room. Walk out with: - How to make your business investable before you ever pitch: the metrics, story and structure they check first - Exactly how to run a raise: who to approach, in what order, and how to create competition for your round - The red flags that quietly kill deals, and how to remove every one from your business now Jo Dalton: founder of JD&Co and JD Ventures, a thousand-plus leaders placed. Rupa Popat: founder of Araya Ventures, Forbes Top 15 UK investor. Courtney Sawatzke alongside. The other side of the table, out loud.

Social media growth, AI content and making money online: John Lee answers any question on all of it, live, no script. This is the material he fills rooms of thousands with around the world, people pay for seats at those. Here, it's an hour of it pointed at your business, included in your Business Day ticket. If you want a specific answer to your specific situation, bring the question. Walk out with: - Your growth problem answered live by someone who has solved it at scale - What he'd do in his first 90 days starting from zero in 2026 - The one channel he'd bet on for the next twelve months, and why John Lee: co-founder and CEO of Wealth Dragons, millions of followers, stages shared with Tony Robbins and Richard Branson. Rooms this size sell out for him. Get in early.

Hiring, boards, co-founders, firing: Jo Dalton answers any people question that's deciding whether your company scales, live and unscripted. She's placed over a thousand leaders into Europe's fastest-growing companies and seen every mistake up close. If a people decision is keeping you up at night, bring it. Walk out with: - Your hiring or board question answered by the person Europe's scaleups call first - The hire she says founders make too late, and the one they make too early - How to spot a bad senior hire before the contract is signed, not after Jo Dalton: founder of JD&Co and JD Ventures, a thousand-plus leaders placed, angel investor. Ask her anything. That's the point.

How to get attention for your health brand when AI has made everyone sound identical: that's this hour, from the man Steven Bartlett keeps bringing back. Seven appearances on Diary of a CEO and counting, more than anyone else on the world's biggest business podcast. There's a reason. AI just made content free, and attention has never cost more. Same posts. Same polish. Same silence from the market. Daniel's argument: this is the single biggest opening founders have had in a decade, because when everyone can publish, the game moves to demand, and almost nobody knows how to build it. If you're building a health brand or practice and you're done shouting into the feed, this hour is for you. Walk out with: - How to become THE name in your corner of health, so demand hunts you down instead of the other way round - The waiting-list playbook that makes a business oversubscribed before it even launches - What to stop posting tomorrow, and where that energy actually compounds Daniel Priestley. Serial founder and investor. Four bestsellers, including Oversubscribed. The most borrowed playbook in modern business, from the man who wrote it.

Thinking about writing a book? Good instinct: a book is still the fastest authority machine in business. It opens stages, closes clients and works while you sleep. Tony Wrighton has written nineteen. In this hour he shows you how to do your first. If you've been "meaning to write the book" for years, this ends the excuse. Walk out with: - How to land on the book idea that builds your business, and test that people will buy it before you write a word - How to write it with no spare time: the exact routine that takes busy founders from blank page to finished manuscript - How to get it published and make it stand out: agent, publisher or self-publish, and which route pays you most Tony Wrighton, Sky Sports presenter, author of nineteen books and audiobooks in thirteen languages, host of Biohacking News by Zestology. Nineteen books, one system. This is the hour you start yours.

Scaling past founder-led is where most health brands die: the founder is the brand, the team can't carry it, growth stalls. This panel has crossed that valley, the founders behind some of the UK's fastest-growing health products, with the woman who builds their boards. If your brand's growth still depends entirely on you, this hour is the way out. Walk out with: - How to move from founder energy to a machine that grows without you in every room - Which hires unlock each stage, in what order, and what to buy versus build in your team - How to keep the brand's soul while the team, the retailers and the revenue multiply Sunna van Kampen: founder of Tonic Health, the UK's fastest-growing vitamin brand, 1.5 million followers. Mark Rushmore: co-founder of SURI. Jo Dalton: founder of JD&Co, board-builder to Europe's scaleups. The £100m question, answered from the road.

Raising money, valuing your company, finding angels, surviving a no: Rupa Popat answers any fundraising question, straight, live. One hour with a working VC covers what founders usually pay a lawyer, an advisor and a year of mistakes to learn. If you're raising now or within eighteen months, bring your hardest question. Walk out with: - Your fundraising question answered straight by an investor who writes real cheques - What makes her say yes inside one meeting, and the answer that ends it - How to get in front of investors without warm intros, and what actually earns a reply Rupa Popat: founder of Araya Ventures, Forbes Top 15 UK investor, exited founder, backer of dozens of companies. Ask her anything. That's the point.

The next health trends are already visible if you know where to look, and this panel spots them for a living. Lestat McCree just built Healf into Europe's fastest-growing company, No.1 on the FT1000, by seeing what health buyers want before they know it themselves. Beside him: the platform that tracks the entire longevity industry, the founder of the UK's largest plant-based restaurant, and the founder of this summit. What's next, called before it hits your feed. If you build, invest or advise in health, hearing this early is the whole advantage. Walk out with: - Which trends they say break mainstream next, and which current darlings are already peaking - How to spot a real trend before the crowd: the exact signals each of them watches - Where to place your next product, content or investment bet in the next twelve months Lestat McCree: co-founder and CEO of Healf, £100m+ revenue on under £5m raised. Phil Newman: founder of Longevity.Technology. Loui Blake: founder of Erpingham House, the UK's largest plant-based restaurant, alt-protein investor. Tim Gray: founder of the Health Optimisation Summit. The future, called early.

How to build a personal brand people trust, follow and buy from: that's this hour, taught by the woman who's helped launch more seven-figure health businesses than almost anyone alive. The timing matters, because AI can now write your content, analyse your labs and clone your competitor overnight. The one thing it can't generate is a founder people believe. If you're the face of your business, this is how you become the name in your niche. Walk out with: - The exact assets to build first, in order, so your brand sells while you sleep - How to earn trust at scale without pretending to be perfect: the credibility moves AI can't copy - The offer ladder behind dozens of seven-figure health businesses, so audience becomes income JJ Virgin: triple-board-certified nutrition expert, four-time New York Times bestseller, Fitness Hall of Famer, founder of the community credited with launching more health bestsellers than any other. She built the playbook. She's handing it over.

Health founders take the stage and pitch two of the UK's most active early-stage investors, live, unfiltered, in front of the whole room. Think Dragon's Den, for health: real questions, real feedback, real cheque-writers watching. This is for you if you're a health founder, an investor, or you want to see exactly how money actually gets raised. Walk out with: - Potentially, investor interest in your own brand: the people on that stage write real cheques - How raising actually works, shown live: the questions asked, the answers that land, the mistakes that end it in two minutes - Access to the investors behind some of Europe's fastest-growing companies, all in one room Jo Dalton: founder of JD&Co, builder of a thousand-plus leadership teams for Europe's fastest-growing brands. Rupa Popat: founder of Araya Ventures, Forbes Top 15 UK investor. The next unicorn might be in the room. It might be you.
