There comes a point where personal success is no longer the metric. For the individuals aiming to shape industries and drive positive global change, the defining question becomes one of legacy and impact. How can we leverage our resources, our networks and our passions, and each other’s, to create the greatest possible impact for the world?

The Ariara Conclave is the answer to that question.

This is not a retreat. It is a private, 8 day summit on an exclusive private island in the Philippines, designed for a carefully curated group of 8-10 visionary leaders, philanthropists and entrepreneurs. Our purpose is twofold: to provide you with the ultimate strategic advantage by optimising your personal health and vitality, and to create a unique catalyst for collaboration toward global impact. We have specifically chosen early March for The Ariara Conclave as it represents the absolute peak of the dry season in Palawan, offering idyllic temperatures, calm seas and uninterrupted sunshine, ensuring a perfect environment for both our deep work and island adventures.

The Foundation

Each morning is dedicated to you. Before breakfast we practice meditation and qigong full body conditioning exercises from my system The Path of Balance & Harmony - a collection of ancient techniques to regulate body and mind. After breakfast, alongside plenty of time to rest, explore or chat, you will receive a personalised diagnosis of your physical and mental state (including in-depth medical pulse diagnosis), identifying where you hold internal tensions and how to relax them, and bespoke acupuncture to treat any symptoms you have and to stimulate high levels of homeostasis - your body and mind’s ability to self regulate.

The pulse diagnosis and acupuncture will shift your health in a short space of time, the meditation and qigong will sustain the work we do long into the future (with ongoing guided support available).

We will build a foundation of physical and mental stability, flexibility and robust energy, giving you the clarity and vitality required to lead at the highest level long term. This is your unfair advantage.

The Catalyst

Most afternoons, we convene for "Impact Sprints"—high-level mastermind sessions where we tackle the specific challenges, passions, missions and opportunities of our members. This is where the true alchemy happens. We will leverage the collective intelligence, experience and networks in the room to unlock solutions to each other’s complex problems, consider new partnerships, co-found new projects and intensify each other’s passions. This is about setting a new standard for what is possible when brilliant minds and good hearts align.

Celebrating Well

We are here to celebrate life and the opportunity to be creative. Alongside the focus on impact and each other, the island life provides opportunity for exploration and activities in the sea and on land - both the island itself, which has some impressive elevation, and those around, giving us the ability to really embrace the environment and the culture.

Your Invitation

Participation in the Ariara Conclave is by application or private invitation only. I am seeking individuals who have a demonstrated history of integrity and success, who are driven by a purpose beyond profit, and who are ready to engage fully in a process of radical collaboration.

If you believe you are one of these individuals, I invite you to begin the conversation.

George is focused on improving global health outcomes at all price points, including free. His goal is a global free healthcare system from a highly profitable business model by 2050.

People with big hearts, big vision and big action are my type of people. Getting such people together with a singular purpose of global impact is the type of opportunity that entices me the most.

With years of clinical and scholarly insight into how health is generated and optimised, the value of passion and purpose, and on embracing life as you see fit, I love helping people engage their vitality and passions better so that many people and the wider world reap the benefits.
