From May 4 - 7, 2025, the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles was alive with forward-thinking dialogue as more than 5,000 global leaders, innovators, and changemakers gathered for the Milken Institute Global Conference. With 1,000+ speakers including Wladimir Klitschko, Jensen Huang, Ken Griffin, Alex Rodriguez, Ian Schrager, Carl Lewis and Earvin ‘Magic’ Johnson, across sessions focused on AI, finance, health, sustainability, and human performance, this year’s theme - Toward a Flourishing Future - set the stage for transformative ideas and technologies.
We were thrilled to once again be a part of this powerful gathering. As returning participants in the Wellness Garden - a serene, immersive space dedicated to holistic well-being - Shiftwave proudly offered a moment of recovery and restoration amidst the intensity of the week.
Just like last year, our mission was simple: create space for pause, regulation, and reconnection. This year’s response was overwhelming - in the best way. From world-renowned speakers to industry leaders and first-time guests, we were humbled by the feedback we received. People described Shiftwave as ‘a welcome reset’, ‘a calming contrast to the day’s high-energy panels’, and a ‘powerful tool for focus and recovery’.
Our Chief Experience Officer, David DeMember, said:
“It was an incredible honor to bring Shiftwave back once again to the Milken Institute Global Conference, one of the world’s most influential gatherings, and a key opportunity to advance nervous system health and human performance.”
The conference’s lineup also featured wellness icons like Arianna Huffington, Dr. Michael Breus, Dr. Mark Hyman, and Deepak Chopra - underscoring the growing recognition of nervous system support and performance optimization as essential pillars of modern well-being
Shiftwave’s presence aligned seamlessly with sessions like “Accelerating a Healthier Future Through AI” and broader conversations around technology’s role in strengthening human potential. In a world increasingly focused on resilience, our real-time recovery technology stood out as a future-forward solution for both personal and professional performance.
As we look ahead, we’re more inspired than ever to continue driving innovation in nervous system health - and deeply grateful to the organizers and everyone who experienced Shiftwave at this year’s Milken Institute Global Conference.
