St. Gallen “Healthcare Management & Leadership Retreat” March 13-14, 2026

UNIVERSITY OF ST. GALLEN - EXECUTIVE SCHOOL

St. Gallen “Healthcare Management & Leadership Retreat”

March 13th-14th, 2026

Executive Summary by Professor Holzgreve: From CEOs to CEOs.  From Board Members to Board Members. From Ministers to Ministers.

This is not another healthcare conference. It is a Retreat—designed exclusively for the highest decision-makers across Medicine & Health Sciences Business, Health Sciences, and Health Policy.

Led by Prof. Dr. med. Dr. h.c. mult. Wolfgang Holzgreve, former CEO of the University Hospital Bonn and a proven transformation leader in both the German, Swiss, Austria (DACH), EU and International Healthcare Systems, this invitation-only retreat offers a uniquely strategic setting for open dialogue, cutting-edge insights, and effective solutions from the Best towards the Best.

PURPOSE

With 70% of hospitals in Germany—and a growing number in Switzerland—facing negative margins (Hospital Rating Report 2024 / KPMG Study Clearing Health.Care, 2024), the call for resilient, results-driven healthcare leadership has never been louder.

We address the core challenge: How can we lead with excellence while ensuring both medical quality and financial viability?

WHY ST. GALLEN? WHY NOW?

As Professor Holzgreve states:

“Healthcare is one of the most important services which societies have to provide. In Germany the costs for medical treatment are not paid by the patients themselves, but by the “ solidarity community” of all citizens. This is a great social achievement for more than 100 years, but currently this system has to be defended, because the costs are exceeding the money available with anongoing increase of the expenditures.

Therefore in order to safeguard the highest possible quality management together with everybody in the system has to make sure that there is maximum efficiency and no waste of resources. This requires a good control of costs as well as excellent leadership, and for that purpose the training of healthcare providers has to be optimal  in medicine and economy as well.

The Healthcare  management program in the Executive School of the University of St. Gallen/ Switzerland is offering such an intensive program following the motto of lifelong learning and learning from the best”.

– Prof. Dr. med. Dr. h.c. mult. Wolfgang Holzgreve, MBA

 

A HIGH-RETURN INVESTMENT IN FUTURE-PROOF LEADERSHIP

The St. Gallen Healthcare Management & Leadership Retreat is fully independent and financed primarily through participant fees—ensuring quality, neutrality, and focus. It is a direct investment in the future of leadership across Medicine & Health Sciences Business, Health Sciences, and Health Policy.

We invite senior decision-makers who lead with foresight, responsibility, and purpose to join us on March 13-14, 2026 at the University of St. Gallen—an institution where legacy meets leadership.

The Health Captains Think Tank since 2003 – with Partner, Family, Friends & Colleagues

I. The Health Captains LEADERSHIP & INVESTORS FORUM

“The Health Captains Think Tank” on Captains Island Föhr is since 2003 the founding and historic Patronage format of SÜNJHAID! = HEALTH! with a focus on value-based Leadership – since 2003 the THINK TANKS of 15, the BRAINPOOLS of 50 and FORUMS of 150 of the “Health Captains” have been taking place starting on the Ascension Thursday every year on the NORTH FRISIAN CAPTAINS ISLAND OF FÖHR in the Middle of the UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE WAADENSEA – first thinking, then acting – SÜNJHAID! is always a possible combination of Think Tank and authentic short vacation for your HEALTHY LONGEVITY on the Island of Föhr according to our motto: “RHÜM HAART, KLAR KIMMING” (Fering = Language of the Islanders of Föhr: “A big open heart and a clear horizon”). As Concerned Citizen’s, we feel committed to this motto of the North Frisian Islands from Föhr. As people and as responsible persons, we look beyond the professional horizon – because the Responsibility for Health is a task for the Civil Society as a whole! On the Captains Island Föhr we supplement this spiritual nucleus to insular commitment and cheerfulness and the experience of being able to share with friends – “SÜNJHAID! The Health Captains: Partners, Family, Friends and Collegues are always welcome – since 2003 “: Wadding, riding, golfing, sailing, surfing, cycling, moving: participating in SÜNJHAID! on the Captains & Health Island Föhr is always a Family and Community experience with a high emotional anchorage. Our goal is for all participating HEALTH CAPTAINS from Föhr Island to return to their work places charged with an authentic “wellbeing experience” for their own Healthy Longevity and in this sense the Leadership Healthy Longevity Compass from SÜNJHAID! internalize and disseminate. SÜNJHAID! & RÜNJHAID! = HEALTH! & WEALTH! – “The Health Captains Think Tank on HEALTHSPAN & WEALTHSPAN” Dr. Henri Michael von Blanquet, MD, PhD, MaHM, Founder of The Health Captains – Alkersum on Föhr Island in 2002 *****

II. The Health Captains HEALTHY LONGEVITY MEDICINE FORUM

“Healthy Longevity Medicine  is optimizing HEALTHSPAN by targeting ageing processes across the LIFESPAN.” Definition by the Healthy Longevity Medicine Society #HLMS. More #HealthyLongevityKnowledge @ THE HEALTH CAPTAINS INSTITUTE. Islanders, just like the rural population and the mainland’s metropolises, should have direct, first-line access to sustainable, value-based healthcare and healthy longevity medicine on a modern scaleable network platform focused on sustainable medicine for sustainable health. A modern island medicine 3.0 can become the prototype for medicine 3.0 on the mainland. Islanders who fall ill on their island will always be disadvantaged – eliminating this disadvantage will sustainably increase the value of island locations for the islanders themselves, as well as for thousands of homeowners (property values), and island guests. With the Health Captains Healthy Longevity Island Summit Föhr-Amrum-Sylt, we want to spark the initial spark for Healthy Longevity Medicine for All synchronized between the Islands and the Mainland. WHAT´s NEXT on Ascension Thursday? #HLIS2025 Brainpool of 50 - The Grand Program Committee and White Paper Process for #HLIS2027 - HEALTH CAPTAINS HEALTHY LONGEVITY ISLAND SUMMIT FÖHR-AMRUM-SYLT May 6th-9th, 2027 for max. 150 Participants

World Congress on Targeting Longevity April 8-9, 2026 – Berlin

DoubleTree by Hilton Berlin Ku’damm Los-Angeles-Platz 1 10789 Berlin / Germany

TARGETING HEALTHY LONGEVITY BERLIN 2026

The Second World Congress on Targeting Longevity, jointly organized by the World Mitochondria Society (WMS) and the International Society of Microbiota (ISM), will be held on 8–9 April 2026 in Berlin. The meeting challenges reductionist views of aging and positions longevity as a dynamic, systemic process shaped by the continuous interaction of mitochondria, microbiota, metabolism, immune balance, inflammation, and stress adaptation. Rather than focusing on isolated targets or late-stage interventions, the congress promotes understanding aging as a progressive loss of coordination between interconnected biological systems. Central to this perspective is the mitochondria–microbiota dialogue, which influences resilience and aging trajectories across the lifespan in both humans and companion animals. Bringing together multidisciplinary experts, the meeting aims not to advance a single molecule or technology, but to reshape how longevity is understood—shifting the focus from correcting aging to sustaining systemic balance over time. We look forward to welcoming you in Berlin. Warm regards, Marvin Edeas, Volkmar Weissig Chairmen of Targeting Longevity Scientific Committee

BAY AREA AGING MEETING

#BAAM2026

MEETING STRUCTURE

Bay Area Aging Meetings are sponsored by the Glenn Foundation for Medical Research. The symposia rotate across host institutions, including Gladstone Institutes/UC San Francisco, Stanford University, UC Berkeley and the Buck Institute. Meetings are open to the public. Representative faculty members from each institution, who are experts in the aging field, organize the meetings. These one-day gatherings consist of oral and poster presentations by graduate students and postdoctoral fellows from universities and institutes in the Bay Area, who are conducting research on the biology of aging and age-related disease. Meetings often feature a keynote lecture from a faculty member. The meeting format is designed to maximize networking among participants.

BAAM HISTORY

The discovery of mutations that cause dramatic lifespan extension has spurred a surge of interest in the basic research on the biology of aging. The value of aging research is further increased by recognition that aging drives the development of a wide spectrum of diseases. The Bay Area is the home to many aging research laboratories recognized for their contributions to the understanding of the biology of aging. In 2009, the idea of the Bay Area Aging Meeting was conceived and received overwhelming support from aging research laboratories across the Bay Area as well as sponsorship from the Glenn Foundation for Medical Research. The first meeting took place at the Gladstone Institutes in San Francisco, California in April 2010.

In many places, the previous health system no longer works satisfactorily. Increasingly, in rural areas, doctors' positions cannot be filled in a timely manner or even not at all. The local hospitals there are having great difficulty recruiting sufficient specialist staff to maintain care. That doesn't always work out. That is why the restructuring of the healthcare system is at the top of the agenda. Competition or planning, entrepreneurship or the state, these are the big questions that will determine public discussions. The GERMAN HEALTH INDUSTRY CONGRESS in Hamburg is exactly the right place to develop and formulate the positions of those responsible in the industry. The event is the most important platform for decision-makers from companies in the various health service providers, the health industry, service providers, financial service providers and specialist consultants, research and teaching institutions as well as health insurance companies and insurance companies. This is where ideas and thoughts are exchanged with politicians and associations. The presence of those responsible from Germany and neighboring countries from Scandinavia and the Baltic Sea Area on the one hand and Austria and Switzerland on the other hand makes the GERMAN HEALTH INDUSTRY CONGRESS HAMBURG the first address for top management to open Doors the North European Market. Important impulses for further public debate emanate from the congress. The Congress President Professor Heinz Lohmann look forward to welcoming you on September 09th and 10th, 2026.
