It’s not so bad growing old
What's too bad is there haven't been more innovations to make older adulthood more enjoyable

An Overlooked & Misunderstood Market
The needs and desires of today’s active adults are often overlooked or misunderstood. Myths and stereotypes abound. This is a very large and underserved market segment that offers significant opportunities for expansion and growth in the areas of housing and real estate technology products and services. We provide significant insights and develop strategies to successfully grow profits from the longevity economy.
Older adulthood now spans 30 years or more and the many assumptions and stereotypes about this time of life are outdated at best. According to consumer research, adults ages 50 to 80 have similar lifestyle preferences to millennials. As you age, however, the need and desire for services to support and maintain your lifestyle increases.
Aging in Community
The overwhelming preference of adults of all ages is to age independently in their homes as long as possible. Yet for most, maintaining an independent, healthy and active lifestyle becomes more challenging over time.
Many innovative businesses and technology platforms deliver every type of service and experience a millennial might want or need, or not need. Millennial parents (boomers) want and need many of the same services, and more, to make their older adulthood more enjoyable. These are two equally large markets, yet boomer needs, and desires are often overlooked.
HOUSING & TECHNOLOGY FOR AGING IN COMMUNITY
Active adults are actually comfortable with technology. A 65-year-old today has had 10 to 12 years of smart phone experience while 80% of those 60 to 75 years of age browse the internet daily. The majority of older adults are ready to use technology to help manage and enhance their lives.
Housing + Technology = Senior Living ANYWHERE
