Global Ageing Network Summit: Innovation In Aged Care
It’s no secret that the population of older adults is increasing dramatically in every corner of the globe. What’s less clear is how governments, businesses, and aged care providers can seize the opportunities and address the challenges presented by this unprecedented and widespread demographic shift. A full-day Global Ageing Network Summit on Saturday, November 1, will explore this critical question. A panel of experts will spend the day discussing policies and practices that could help countries worldwide take a proactive and innovative approach to aged care. Presenters will discuss the economic opportunities associated with longevity and share their thoughts on emerging trends and innovations shaping the future of aged care technology. They will also examine key policy developments across countries and propose future policies to ensure sustainable and person-centered care is available for every older adult in every country.

Panelists:

  • Vic Rayner, National Care Forum
  • Joseph F. Coughlin, Massachusetts Institute of Technology AgeLab
  • David Lindeman, University of California, Berkeley
  • Emi Kiyota, National University of Signapore
  • Tom Symondson, Ageing Australia
