Lake Nona Impact Forum Details
For the past eight years, The Tavistock Group convened an exclusive gathering of 300 global thought leaders who contribute, inspire and make changes to health and human potential. Known as the Lake Nona Impact Forum, the three-day event brings together Fortune 500 c-suite executives, academic leaders, entrepreneurs, media, luminaries, healthcare system and health plan CEOs, as well as artists, cultural icons, and celebrities for fierce conversations about the future of health and healthcare in the United States and globally. The diversity of perspectives and the caliber of our thought leaders offer a unique opportunity to learn and debate. In 2019, some of our favorite moments included hearing from Steve Case on the value of spreading investment dollars via his program ‘The Rise of Rest'; admiring the power of the human mind with Deepak Chopra; and watching the debut of Dr. Sanjay Gupta's HBO Documentary, ‘One Nation Under Stress,' which he admittedly decided to show first at the Lake Nona Impact Forum because, as he said, "showing the film at a place like Lake Nona Impact Forum improves the chances that maybe it'll make some sort of difference because there are so many impact makers at a place like this." Joe Lewis, self-made serial entrepreneur is the Founder and Chairman of the Tavistock Group. The event has become a signature opportunity to showcase the philosophy behind Lake Nona, the 14,000-acre ‘city of wellbeing' that his company has created to bring nearly $4 billion in Life Sciences development to the city of Orlando in the last 10 years. The area has become a rapidly growing cluster for health and wellness businesses, co-located to spur greater, accelerated innovation to improve lives. Among our neighbors, we count Johnson & Johnson, HCA Healthcare, KPMG, Blue Cross Blue Shield of FL, UCF College of Medicine,, UF College of Pharmacy, Nemours Children's Hospital, Department of Veterans Affairs, as well as the USTA Headquarters.
