Meetings on 28 March:
the beginning of a long-term commitment for AXA

"Passionate and passionately committed experts” – it was with those words that Henri de Castries, AXA Chairman and CEO, closed the first Meetings of the Global Forum for Longevity which brought together nearly 250 participants and journalists.

With a reminder that "no scenario is ever written in advance,” Henri de Castries reaffirmed AXA’s will to continue its drive to "open up new avenues of thought and change” so that longevity would not be perceived as unavoidable fate, but rather as a new source of opportunity.

A partner of the Global Forum for Longevity, the AXA Fundamental Research Fund has decided to allocate an additional €10 million over the next two years to research into longevity.
