Artifcts Co-Founder Speaks at LongeviTech-TLV 2023

February 20, 2023

Last week was the first annual LongeviTech conference, led by the vision and mission-driven focus of Dr. Ira Sobel, the founder and Academic Director of Fintech for Longevity Academy.

LongeviTech-TLV 2023 united people from across the globe to create a unique space for open discussions and collaboration on the critical social, financial, health, and other lenses of longevity. If we are living longer and longer, how do we ensure the financial resilience, community support, and more to live quality, healthy lives by our own personal definitions?

Ellen Goodwin will speak at LongeviTech TLV 2023

Artifcts was honored to be invited to the stage in Tel Aviv alongside Laura Minquini, AthenaDAO; Ariel Yosefi, Herzog Fox & Neeman; Ron Gura, Empathy; and Polina Marenkova, Wallife. Our panel discussed the role of technology in longevity to preserve our legacies and both pre-plan and manage end of life with lesser emotional, legal, and financial toll than is the status quo.

"Artifcts is building something revolutionary, uniting in a single technology the power to unlock the stories and the financial value within the objects we all collect," said Dr. Sobel. "The platform promises a simple and powerful process, and I look forward to seeing how it will reshape aspects of insurance, estate planning, and story-sharing."

Over the next year, the conference participants will use the new relationships and momentum from last week's conference to forge new product crossovers, support intersecting research, capture the imagination of venture capital in longevity, and more. Stay tuned! This this only the beginning.
