Can the aroma of coffee get you active?

Active Rewards the most successful Vitality product in history

In September 2015, Discovery Vitality launched the Active Rewards Benefit in an effort to increase and maintain the total level of physical activity for our members. The response? An unprecedented and enthusiastic level of interest from our members. In just four months, we have reached roughly three times the number of activated and engaged members than we had initially anticipated, making the Active Rewards Benefit the most successful product in Vitality’s history.

Join the CEO of Discovery Vitality, Dr Shrey Viranna, on Tuesday 23 February to discuss how we used the aroma of coffee to get thousands of people off the couch and into their running shoes, and how this laid a foundation for a powerful, global real-time Vitality platform that is ultimately shifting health outcomes.

Date: Tuesday 23 February 2016

Time: 10:30 for 11:00 – 13:00

Venue: Discovery offices, 16 Fredman Drive, Sandton

RSVP: TarynKe@discovery.co.za or 011 529 2204
