The 4th Annual Healthspan Summit 2026 took over Los Angeles on October 2-3, turning 40,000 square feet into four zones of longevity programming: Innovation, Vitality, Beautyspan, and Nexus. More than 1,000 attendees, clinicians, founders, investors, and biohackers, moved between the Horizon Stage keynotes, the show floor demos, and a red carpet that felt more like a film premiere than a health conference.
Here is what the weekend looked like from inside.
The red carpet
The summit opened with a red carpet at 11301 W. Olympic Blvd, and the crowd dressed for it. Founders, physicians, and wellness personalities posed for the step-and-repeat before heading into the programming. It set the tone: longevity is having a cultural moment, and this summit is its stage.
Fireside conversations
One of the summit’s signature formats was the fireside chat: unscripted conversations with the people building the longevity economy. The Horizon Stage hosted founders and clinicians talking candidly about what is working, what is hype, and where the science is actually headed.
The show floor: tech you can touch
The Innovation Hall was the heart of the summit: 40,000 square feet of exhibitors demoing the devices, diagnostics, and recovery tools defining the longevity space. Four exhibitors stood out.
Summus Medical Laser, a summit sponsor, demonstrated the Summus Laser Pod, a full body red light pod bringing medical-grade photobiomodulation to the show floor. Richard Albright presented on the Horizon Stage about the future of laser therapy.
Bioharmonic Technologies exhibited the V.I.B.E.S. (Vibrational Individualized Body Enhancement System), a full-body vibroacoustic therapy bed by Dr. Steven Schwartz that delivers neurologically enhanced music through sound and vibration in 20-minute sessions.
Biohacker Rehab, an Encino-based practice focused on craniosacral therapy and integrative wellness, exhibited their SoftWave device alongside their recovery offerings.
Biohacker Rehab is based in Encino and offers craniosacral therapy and integrative wellness.
Vexon Med, a physician-led longevity and performance medicine practice from Marina Del Rey, showcased their VEX score model: comprehensive physiologic testing distilled into a single baseline for how patients move, recover, age, and perform.
The programming tracks
Three tracks structured the two days: Longevity Medicine and Clinical Innovation, Aesthetic Innovation and Beautyspan, and Fitness Recovery and Human Performance. Speakers included Elias Arjan, Richard Albright of Summus, Kim Ressler of SNiP Nutrigenomics, Jeremy Hoffmann, Dr. Emily Splichal, Sanjiv Lal of Regen Therapy, Dr. Resham Uttamchandani of ConciergeMD, Valerie Orsoni, Dr. Perry Nickelston, Lea Llovio, and Susan Bratton.
Why it matters
The Healthspan Summit has grown from a niche biohacker gathering into a 1,000-person industry event with sponsors like Regen Therapy, Summus Lasers, Luqra, and ConciergeMD. The 2026 edition made the case that longevity is no longer a fringe interest: it is an industry with clinical standards, consumer products, and a culture of its own.
