"Between 2015 and 2050, the proportion of the world's population over 60 years will nearly double from 12% to 22%" - World Health Organization.
How old will you be in 2050? If you're 31 today you will be turning 60. It's likely you will have parents in their 80s, 90s maybe 100s. Over the next 29 years caregiving technology must bridge a critical gap for managing aging at home. But at what price? Where are the lines between prevention, privacy and peace of mind? In each episode I explore this question. Discussing practical solutions to real world challenges.
