IHRSA 2015 kicks off in Los Angeles
POSTED 11 Mar 2015 . BY Jak Phillips
Arianna Huffington views health and wellbeing as essential to success in business
Premier fitness industry event IHRSA 2015 gets underway today at the L.A. Convention Center in Los Angeles, with media mogul Arianna Huffington set to star with a keynote speech.

Huffington, who became president and editor-in-chief of Huffington Post Media Group when it was sold to AOL for US$315m (€249m, £197m) in 2011, will take to the podium later today to produce a keynote under the theme ‘Redefining Success: The Third Metric That Can Benefit Your Bottom Line.’

Other speakers at the event – which runs from 11-14 March – include author and trendspotter Magnus Lindkvist, who delivered an electrifying session at the recent ukactive Flame conference in Telford, UK. The Swede will discuss ‘Thinking About the Future in an Uncertain World’, while there will also be keynotes from New York Times business columnist Adam Bryant, plus Stanford University lecturer and author Kelly McGonigal.

The full four-day IHRSA Convention takes place from Wednesday morning (11 March) through to Saturday afternoon (14 March). The Trade Show takes place on two days – Thursday 12 March and Friday 13 March.



In addition to a keynote on each of the convention’s four days, IHRSA 2015 attendees will also experience a wide-ranging line-up of leading industry presenters, social events, summits and the trade show.

Health Club Management will be on hand throughout IHRSA 2015, live reporting on the latest developments throughout the conference and posting them straight to the Health Club Management website. Head of news Jak Phillips will also be live-tweeting from the event, follow him on Twitter by clicking here.
