October 1st is the anniversary of International Longevity Day, which was chosen in 2013 to coincide with the International Day of Older Persons, declared by the United Nations in 1990. According to the European Union, Spain is the country with the highest life expectancy within the union, and Madrid is also the national capital with the highest life expectancy in the region. This confirms that Madrid is the European capital of longevity and to enhance this reality it is necessary to continue improving the quality of life, medical services, investments and research for the radical extension of life.

Madrid will become the meeting point for this futuristic celebration, where different groups from all over the world will meet to connect and work together closely.
