The Highlights of the Panel Discussion

  • While life-span has doubled over the last century, society has not kept up. We are adding years at the end, while anchoring on milestones from the past.
  • Innovating for longevity does not equal innovating for the old age.
  • Everyday, there are more people above 65 getting online than people being born: technology plays a key role in longevity and defense against chronic illness.
  • Age is not a number: the three areas that define someone’s age are their degree of independence, mobility and cognitive state.
  • It’s essential to implement digital tech to aid diagnosis and treatments of chronic illness without turning it into surveillance tools.
  • Community, purpose and engagement are key things to keep in mind for healthy aging.
