The Bio Biz Bash 2024 in Phoenix combined two worlds that don't always overlap — cutting-edge biohacking technology and entrepreneurship — into a single event that drew biohackers, business builders, and health-conscious innovators from across the country. If the tech hall at a biohacking conference is already your favorite part of an event, imagine adding a business and marketing layer on top. That's Bio Biz Bash.
The Tech Hall
Walking into the expo floor, the range of technology on display was immediately striking.
Centropix held a prominent spot in the main hall showcasing its PEMA (Pulsed ElectroMagnetic Activation) technology — wearable and sleep devices designed to support cellular recovery and energy. A personal favorite from previous conferences, and an easy recommendation to newcomers curious about frequency medicine.
iPyramids, a Sedona-based company, brought healing pyramids built with orgonite and frequency technology. Time spent inside one of their pyramids delivered a noticeably calm and grounded feeling — the kind of experience that's hard to dismiss once you've had it.
NanoVi offered structured water inhalation technology to enhance protein folding and cellular repair — a device that sounds exotic but has been showing up at serious biohacking events for years for good reason.
NOA|AON was the standout discovery of the event. The company curates the world's best biohacking technologies through a wellness and consciousness lens. Their flagship product, the Vizr — a headset using precisely calibrated flashing lights paired with sound — induces specific brain states with surprising efficiency. A demo session followed by a brief breathwork practice produced a perceptible shift in mental state. Garnet Dupuis, the inventor, is clearly thinking at a different level about how light can interact with the brain. Pavel Stuchlik, the company's founder, has built something genuinely distinct in the consciousness optimization space.
Russell Brand made an appearance on the floor — spotted at a cryo chamber — a sign of just how mainstream biohacking has become.
Keynote: Gary Brecka
The keynote session featured Gary Brecka, human biologist, co-founder of 10X Health, and one of the most compelling voices in the biohacking world. Gary's talk was dense with actionable insight. A few highlights:
On the future of medicine: "The convergence of big data, AI, and early detection will condense 300 years of medical breakthroughs into every five years."
On disease: "The presence of oxygen is the absence of disease. All death is ultimately caused by hypoxia — lack of oxygen to the brain." His framing shifts how you think about recovery, exercise, and supplementation.
On nutrition: "We are not diseased, we are nutrient-deficient." The body requires 91 essential minerals, nine essential amino acids, and two essential fatty acids. There is no such thing as an essential carbohydrate.
On sweeteners: Artificial sweeteners are engineered for addiction, not sweetness — 20% of the chemical formula drives the sweet taste, 80% drives the craving.
On purpose: "Find the most painful thing in your life, fix it, and tell the world about it." And the best advice he ever received: "If you want to shrink your problems, grow your purpose."
Gary's Daily Biohacking Protocol
Brecka closed with his personal morning stack for optimal health:
Get outside and expose your eyes to natural sunlight at sunrise. Ground yourself — walk barefoot on the earth or use PEMF technology. Establish a breathwork practice. Use cold therapy (cold plunge, cold shower, or cryo). Hydrate with electrolytes or hydrogen-enriched water. Supplement strategically to address known deficiencies.
Takeaway
Bio Biz Bash sits in an interesting niche — it attracts people who are serious about both their health and their business, which creates a particularly engaged and entrepreneurially minded crowd. The depth of conversations on the floor reflected that. If you're looking for a biohacking event where you're just as likely to discuss marketing strategy as mitochondrial function, put Bio Biz Bash on your list.
