From BOLD: how companies achieve 10x growth through moonshot thinking, exponential technologies, and crowdsourcing — with examples from the world's boldest entrepreneurs and labs.
Longevity & the Healthspan Revolution
The breakthroughs — genome sequencing, cellular regeneration, AI-driven diagnostics — extending healthy human lifespan, drawn from Life Force and the Longevity Guidebook. A compelling keynote for healthcare, benefits, and any people-first organization.
The story
Who Peter actually is
Peter H. Diamandis was born in the Bronx, New York, in 1961. He studied molecular genetics and physics at MIT, added a master's in aeronautics and astronautics, and earned an MD from Harvard Medical School — a rare combination of engineer, scientist, and physician that shapes how he reads the future of technology.
In 1994 he founded the XPRIZE Foundation, which has since launched more than $600 million in incentive competitions to solve humanity's grand challenges; its Ansari XPRIZE helped catalyze the private spaceflight industry. He went on to co-found Singularity University (with Ray Kurzweil), the International Space University, and more than 25 companies across space, health-tech, longevity, and venture capital — among them Zero Gravity Corporation, Planetary Resources, Human Longevity, Celularity, Fountain Life, and BOLD Capital Partners. Fortune has named him one of the "World's 50 Greatest Leaders."
Diamandis is the author of a string of bestsellers — _Abundance_, _BOLD_, and _The Future Is Faster Than You Think_ (with Steven Kotler), the #1 bestseller _Life Force_ (with Tony Robbins), and, in 2025, the _Longevity Guidebook_. Through his Abundance360 community and his MOONSHOTS podcast, he mentors thousands of CEOs and entrepreneurs on exponential technology and longevity — and on stage he remains one of the most sought-after, and most optimistic, voices on what comes next.
