Global Wellness Institute (GWI) - Future of wellness real estate and communities
Susie Ellis, chairman and CEO of the Global Wellness Summit (GWS) and the Global Wellness Institute (GWI), contends that the Blue Zones lifestyle is part of a larger global trend that is seeing more people prioritizing health and wellness when choosing where to live.

"I'm excited about what's happening in Miami with The Blue Zones Center and think it will be an international flagship for how medical and wellness can be brought together in one place. Since Covid, we have witnessed a huge trend in terms of the medical and wellness communities working together to solve health issues, focusing on prevention over disease treatment. This is the beauty of the Blue Zones' philosophy and lifestyle - it's all about prevention, longevity and quality of life. I think the Blue Zones Center in Miami will be a beacon for more Blue Zones Centers around the world, encouraging more people to live in places that prioritize health and wellness," said Ellis.

Miami To Become "Authentically Healthy"
Last year America's top mayors passed a resolution encouraging cities around the country to adopt a proactive, systematic approach to health based on Blue Zones' widely accepted model of improving the well-being of communities.

Sidney Stolz, Chief Design and Experience Officer for Blue Zones added, "Before The Health Zone at the Blue Zones Center opens, you will see us on the ground in communities, making a positive impact through Blue Zones activation. Blue Zones Project is where we are transforming communities by optimizing environments that lead to longer, healthier, better lives everywhere, including the new Blue Zones Center in downtown Miami," said Stoltz.
