The world is aging at an unprecedented rate. We are fundamentally unprepared as a society to address the growing needs of our aging population.The number of people over the age of 65 is expected to triple over the course of the next 30 years. The Longevity Economy, defined by AARP as 'representing the sum of all economic activity serving the needs of Americans over 50' is expected to reach 13.5 trillion by 2032. The convergence of aging, technological innovation and healthcare reform creates significant and timely opportunities to invest in the technology products and services that will transform aging as we know it.
MITEF of NYC will present a series of thought-leadership panel events for investors, entrepreneurs, business leaders, and academics. The panels will explore the nexus of longevity, technology, and the new, sharing economy... and how those interconnected factors will impact finance, healthcare, careers, human capital, the workplace, urban planning and infrastructure, etc. The first thought leadership panel event will be hosted by Bank of America Merrill Lynch at 1 Bryant Park on the second floor on September 21, 2016 from 530pm to 830pm
