📅 May 9, 2025 | 🕚 11:21 AM | 📍 TED Point, Family Business Forum – Arezzo
How can we prepare to live longer while staying sharp and active? The aging population and the increasing complexity of today’s world raise new questions about cognitive health, mental resilience, and the ability to make effective decisions in later life.
These topics will be discussed on Friday, May 9, at the Family Business Forum during the TED Point session, featuring Nicola Canessa, neuroscientist and full professor at the IUSS School for Advanced Studies in Pavia. His talk, titled “Training the Mind, Protecting the Brain: (Neuro)Science of Wellbeing and Resilience”, will explore the latest research on brain function and how to promote cognitive wellbeing throughout life.
A reflection that bridges neuroscience, technological innovation, and social change—aimed at better understanding the cognitive challenges of advanced age and developing strategies for adaptation and prevention, including in business and decision-making contexts.
The talk is part of a broader event that brings together entrepreneurs, academics, and experts to share insights and perspectives on leadership, sustainability, and the future of family businesses.
