The team behind the Medical Wellness Congress (MWC) is adding to its online series of interviews with its speakers, sponsors and ambassadors with a brand new episode in conversation with Dr George Gaitanos, chief operating and scientific officer of the Chenot Group.

The interviews are designed to provide a snapshot of various topics that the real-time congress will address in its conference and workshop programme between 27-28 June at Saint Martin’s Therme & Lodge in Austria.

Gaitanos' feature sees him sit down with Jean-Guy de Gabriac, founder of World Wellness Weekend, and discuss his own definition of medical wellness and its scope, the specificities of each Chenot property and the innovations he identifies within this sector.

Additional episodes have already been released featuring Andrew Gibson, international wellness and hospitality specialist; Pierre-Louis Delapalme, co-chair of Biologique Recherche; and Alberto Apostoli, wellness architect and founder of Studio Apostoli.

Upcoming interviews still to be released include:
• László Puczkó - CEO of Health Tourism Worldwide.
• Rainer Bolsinger - CSO & CMO of Art of Cryo.
• Sammy Gharieni - founder and CEO of Gharieni Group.

Event founder Vladi Kovanic says delegates will hark from a variety of specialities in the industry, including medical spa owners, aesthetic surgeons, clinic directors, practitioners, doctors, spa and sports therapists, dietitians and hydrotherapists.

She says: "I'm enthusiastic about organising this international event with a speaker line-up packed with so many well-known and respected experts in the sector.”
