About the event

The Foundation is thrilled to invite you to this year’s 10th Anniversary Lunch on September 22, 2023. The event promises to be engaging and productive and will showcase the latest innovations around cancer prevention and treatments, which inform KLF’s annual healthcare programs. 

Given it is the Foundations' 10th Anniversary, we have invited two speakers for a fireside chat who will update the attendees on how female health matters will likely be included in the next public policy address planned for October and how KLF’s sustainable healthcare interventions align with initiatives the Hong Kong Government supports to bolster a holistic female healthcare approach. 

This year, the event will take place at the exquisite China Club in Central, where you will be treated to a sumptuous Chinese lunch. Known for its elegant atmosphere and delectable cuisine, the China Club again serves as the perfect venue for this occasion.

We welcome male allies, colleagues, friends, and partners to join us for this event, which promises to be a great opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals and enjoy some delicious food.

Anca Griffiths

Co-founder & CEO of OM Experts

Anca Griffiths is the co-founder and CEO of OM, a precision health company where the best minds in healthcare come together to offer support and preventative therapeutic strategies to corporates and individuals. An ex-luxury industry executive, OM was born out of Anca's own personal experiences after attempting to navigate the health market on three separate continents, which showed her the immense opportunity for credible and engaging precision health support. After working with the best and most brilliant minds in health from across the world, Anca was shocked to discover the extent to which women are the biggest victims in the current medical system. Working with thousands of women from across the world, Anca discovered firsthand the detrimental impact the rhetoric about the female bodies has had on our ability to meaningfully support our own health. She joined forces with Dr. Jenkins and Dr. McGregor, world-renowned sex and gender health experts who have dedicated their medical careers to championing women from inside the system. Together, they are working to ensure that women are empowered with the right information at every point of their health journey.
