The successful "Health Day" program is being expanded to include "Health Week"

(Berlin, April 24, 2026) Health Day is back—and bigger than ever this year! Because one day isn’t enough, the pme Familienservice is expanding its successful digital health event into Health Week in 2026. A whole week full of inspiration, live challenges, and community—with Health Day on October 8 as the highlight.

This program is designed for all companies and organizations that wish to provide their employees with innovative ways to promote health and well-being—regardless of industry, role, or position.

New in 2026: Health Week



Health Week, taking place from October 5 to 9, 2026, brings fresh inspiration to the workplace every day: from a daily sleep challenge and power breaks to boost resilience, to yoga and relaxation, as well as lectures on longevity, nutrition, family health, and artificial intelligence. Interactive Q&A sessions, practical exercises, and a digital community ensure that these health initiatives have a lasting impact.

All sessions are available live and as recordings.

Michèle Penz, Head of Occupational Health Management at pme Familienservice:

Highlight of the week: Health Day on October 8, 2026

More than 30,000 people have already benefited from Health Day. In 2026, this successful event will take place for the fifth time and once again offer an inspiring program. Under the theme "AI will survive?", the four-hour livestream will explore how people can stay healthy, clear-headed, and confident in a world where algorithms never tire. 

Health Day highlights ways to boost physical and mental health as well as resilience. Viewers will learn how to listen to their inner selves, better manage stress, and use artificial intelligence in ways that support their health rather than creating additional stress—even amid the demands of daily life, balancing work, family, and career.

Here are the speakers for 2026:

Carolin Kebekus (comedian, host, and author) speaks with humor and honesty about mental health as she balances her career and family life.

Dr. Esser explainshow artificial intelligence can help us get and stay healthy in our daily lives.

Elena Semechin (Paralympic champion and entrepreneur) explains how, as a top athlete with a visual impairment, she makes decisions based on perception and intuition, and how AI supports her in her daily life.

Inga Bergen (healthcare entrepreneur and AI expert) explains how Gen Z is transforming the healthcare sector with its tech-savvy mindset and what older generations can learn from this.

Philipp Möller (forensic pathologist)demonstrates how our lifestyle leaves its mark on the body and speaks openly about how he copes with the psychological stresses of his profession.
