CWG Spring Meeting: Full Schedule

Corporate Working Group In Digital Health: March 26th London

The Role Of Digital Technology in Healthy Ageing And Eldercare

Global businesses are dependent on global markets and as such, an ageing population presents significant opportunity. This phenomenon has been one of the major drivers behind the rise of digital health(care) and at the next CWG meeting, we will explore the role of digital technology in two related but very different markets, eldercare and healthy ageing.

• How can digital technology help us to lead happy and healthy lives as we age? From genomics and longevity through the promotion of healthy lifestyles to assisted living, we’ll explore these diverse opportunities and routes to market.

• The stakeholders in eldercare create an unusual and complex market with public and private players interacting with family, friends and the cared for. Whilst telecare was one of the first digital healthcare markets to move, how has this evolved and are we due to experience a new dynamic?
