Invest in our Brains: Invest in our Future

Invest in our Brains: Invest in our Future

How can we invest in our brains to thrive as a society?

Our brains hold the key to our individual and collective futures.

Thanks to advances in science and technology, we can now see our brains like never before, enabling us to understand more about ourselves and our potential.

The global economic and social burden of mental health and neurological disorders is staggering. Whether it be migraine or ADHD, anxiety, dementia, addiction or concussion – we all need to understand how best to prevent, treat and care for our brains.

The Brain Capital Summit will reimagine a future where our brains matter most. Brain Capital is the cumulative value of our brain health and brain skills. By proactively prioritising the brain, we can unleash a new era of human flourishing.

Why attend the Brain Capital Summit?

The Brain Capital Summit will convene leaders across sectors to proactively imagine a brain-led economy.
Innovators, researchers, entrepreneurs, investors, academics, practitioners, educators, policymakers, industry and government leaders will connect and explore brain capital’s transformative potential.

Attend the Brain Capital Summit to:

  • discover how investing in brains can increase productivity
  • understand the drivers — from what we eat to how we work and learn to where and how we live
  • discuss strategies for individuals, communities and organisations to maximise brain health throughout the lifespan
  • spark transdisciplinary approaches to proactively reduce the risks in our workplaces and our communities that do not serve our brains well
  • meet researchers, innovators and startups developing highly innovative technologies and solutions that promote mental health, wellness and resilience
  • create work environments that support optimal brain health and well-being
  • help Australia to leverage our comparative advantage in neuroscience and neurotech to unlock the potential of our brains

If you are interested in a society where the true measure of success lies in the collective strength and health of our brains, we encourage you to join us in Melbourne for the Australian Brain Capital Summit 2025!

When we prioritise our brains, we are investing in a future where every individual can thrive.

An amazing brainstrust is guiding The Brain Capital Summit program.
