Moving forward with innovations for a senior society

            An aging society is a current megatrend. Getting old with quality in terms of health, well-being, emotion, society, education and finance all stems from the development of technology and innovation that allow the seniors to live a good quality of life and better rely on themselves. This is an important mechanism to respond to different needs of the seniors and help create experiences for them, add more convenience and allow them to live by themselves with ease and safety.

            Innovation for the seniors is an important mechanism in propelling the countries that are developing into modern societies to move forward with sustainability. With the changing demographic, using innovation to prepare for a better quality of life, creating environment and adjusting the lifestyle of the seniors is a concept that the society has to develop the innovation for.

Innovation for the seniors in 6 aspects to help tackle the Thai aging society.

  1. Innovation in financial freedom and stability

Creating career opportunities and financial flexibility for the seniors.

  2. Innovation in health

Living as a senior at home with participation of the family. Taking care of the seniors when they are sick. Having a frequent health checkup should not be neglected.

  3. Innovation in cognitive health

Equipment or services that help reinforce the potential of a memory system to reduce the risks in cognitive deficiency, social isolation and other negative health impacts.

  4. Innovation in social and connectivity

Reducing isolation from society and letting them experience “the happy way”. Supporting the seniors to fully integrate into the society since loneliness, depression and anxiety can greatly affect health.

  5. Innovation in mobility and transportation

Since travelling and moving around is a challenge for many seniors, innovations that facilitate their movement will create more options and freedom for them.

Creating inspirations that get the seniors to do more activities can lower the possibility of them developing clinomania.
