The Biohackers World event, founded by Olia Chernova and Mick Saffron, has quickly become a cornerstone for health enthusiasts and biohackers. Both founders bring unique backgrounds to the health optimization space, and their event is a testament to the power of community, innovation, and a holistic approach to well-being.

From Inspiration to Creation: A Personal Health Journey

For Olia, her journey into wellness began with a deep exploration of spiritual health. She realized the importance of the mind-body connection, blending scientifically supported wellness practices with energy work to optimize overall well-being. “Biohacking needed to extend beyond just the physical body,” Olia explains. Her background in academia gave her the foundation to build a platform where people could access a wide range of wellness knowledge.

Mick, coming from a tech and event management background with a passion for biotechnology, saw an opportunity to bring cutting-edge tools and technologies to a broader audience. “I wanted to create a space where people could learn about the best wellness products and innovations, regardless of their experience level,” Mick shares. Together, they crafted Biohackers World, blending their expertise to create an event that resonates deeply with the biohacking community.

A Changing Landscape: Shifts in Health and Wellness Trends

Over the years of organizing their events, both Olia and Mick have noticed significant changes in the biohacking space. “Biohacking was once heavily focused on physical performance metrics, but now we’re seeing more interest in mental wellness, energy work, and holistic practices,” Olia says. She points out that today’s attendees are eager for integrated approaches that go beyond physical optimization.

Mick notes the rise of wearable technology and personalized health data. “People are becoming much more proactive about tracking their own health metrics,” he says. This evolution has created opportunities for collaboration between biotech, mental wellness, and traditional healthcare sectors, all of which are integral to the event’s content.

The Future of Biohacking Events

As the biohacking space continues to evolve, both Olia and Mick are focused on keeping their event at the forefront of innovation. Olia envisions a future where wellness events emphasize proactive health strategies that prevent issues before they arise. "We want to empower people to take control of their well-being," she explains.

Mick adds that their event is evolving into a more interactive experience. “We’re creating spaces where attendees can test out the latest tools and engage with wellness firsthand,” he says. Their aim is to ensure their event stays ahead of the curve by offering hands-on opportunities for attendees.

Overcoming Challenges and Adapting to a Fast-Paced Industry

One of the biggest challenges they faced was shifting from offline to online formats during the pandemic. “We worked hard to preserve the magic of in-person connections,” they reflect. Instead of focusing on challenges, they learned to adapt, making their events more flexible and accessible in any format.

The Impact: What Attendees Take Away

Olia and Mick hope that attendees leave their event with a sense of community. “People should know they’re not alone on their health journey,” Olia says. They aim to offer access to top experts and knowledge without attendees needing years of formal education.

For Mick, the goal is for attendees to realize that biohacking isn’t just about supplements. “It’s about becoming the best version of yourself through everything from cutting-edge devices to energy practices,” he explains.

Ensuring Credibility in a Crowded Market

With so many new wellness products and modalities constantly emerging, Olia and Mick are selective about the brands they feature. “We focus on brands backed by solid science and real-world results,” Mick explains. Their network of trusted experts helps them assess the latest innovations, ensuring that attendees leave with reliable, actionable information.

Collaboration and Inclusivity: Building Strong Partnerships

Collaboration plays a central role in the success of their event. “No one has all the answers,” Mick says. They partner with experts and thought leaders, many from the Biohack Yourself community, who serve as expert speakers on their stages. These collaborations foster a variety of cutting-edge ideas and solutions, enriching the event experience.

Olia and Mick are committed to inclusivity and diversity. “We want to make sure that everyone, regardless of where they are on their wellness journey, feels represented,” Olia says. From newcomers to seasoned biohackers, their event provides value at all levels.

One of the most impactful moments for both founders has been witnessing the deep connections formed between attendees, speakers, and exhibitors. “It’s about the energy when people come together—not just to learn, but to share stories and form lasting relationships,” Olia says. This focus on community is what drives their vision, making the event more than just a conference, but a space for genuine connection and growth.
