Your Blueprint to the Longevity Economy
During a pre-conference session at the 2018 What's Next Boomer Business Summit, Mary Furlong and Lori Bitter shared insights on the longevity marketplace alongside panelists, Jeff Maltz (SilverRide), Jim Murphy (UnitedHealthcare), and Sherwin Sheik (CareLinx).
Attendees learned about the five anchor trends in aging: Social Isolation, Aging in Place, Cognitive Fitness, Management of Chronic Conditions and End of Life. To be successful
in creating products and services that address these
trends, innovators need to listen to the consumers.
Every dissonance of aging is a market opportunity.
