The first HCM Summit took place in London on 24 October at the QEII Conference Centre in the heart of Westminster, with Egym as Platinum Partner.

Senior delegates attended the event from 20 countries – ranging from Taiwan to Norway, Australia to Canada and Italy to South Africa, lending a truly global feel to the proceedings.

Delegates enjoyed a world class lineup of speakers, high-level networking breaks and special event catering by Virgin Active’s healthy food brand, Kauai.

There were also book signings by Jetts’ CEO, Elaine Jobson and The Well HQ’s Baz Moffat, as well as an exhibition of innovation and a networking after party hosted by Les Mills.

The event was live-streamed globally, with teams of operators, investors and consultants around the world tuning in to watch proceedings in real-time.

The majority of delegates polled rated the event and speakers as ‘excellent’ in giving their feedback.

The speaker presentations are now free to watch on-demand at www.HCMsummit.live/2024/videos.

In 2025, this on-demand access will be chargeable.

The summit will be held on Thursday 23 October 2025 and Thursday 22 October 2026 at the QEII.
