Kampala: Uganda witnessed the launch of the Glow Summit 2025, the country’s flagship Modern Wellness Expo, on 29th August 2025 at Fontis Residences Hotel, Kampala. Organized by Breathe Easy Uganda with support from the Ministry of Health (Department of Non-Communicable Diseases), the summit introduces a new era of wellness designed to elevate holistic living from luxury to lifestyle.
Set for 12th October 2025 in Kampala, the Glow Summit will gather top brands and innovators in health, wellness, beauty, fitness, aesthetics, and technology—while giving the public direct access to modern wellness solutions.
“In Uganda, wellness has often been reactive or seen as a luxury. The Glow Summit redefines that. We are introducing wellness as proactive, stylish, and part of everyday life,” said Okiria Levi, Associate Director, Breathe Easy Uganda.
