Fourth Gerontechnology Symposium 2020

Date:    Wednesday, 11 November 2020

Time: 10.00 am – 12.00 noon

Venue: Via Zoom

School of Business cordially invites you to The Fourth Gerontechnology Symposium 2020 with the theme "The new life for senior citizens in a digital world". We are living in an era of unprecedented exciting progress in technological options that are changing many aspects of present society at a high pace beyond recognition. We are also living in an unprecedented era where absolute numbers and percentages of older adults are increasing at a marked rate. The technological revolution has put the growing generations of older adults at a disadvantage if only because their lifelong experiences have been shaped by their experience in earlier technological environments. However, it appears quite feasible to bridge the gap between ageing adults and their present environment if only efforts are focused on that goal.

Guest speakers will share their perspective on various ways to combine the discipline of ageing and of technology to provide new insights and innovations for the ageing population. The Fourth Gerontechnology Sympoisum 2020 hopes to bring together academics, researchers, government, and industry practitioners in Gerontechnology and Innovation. We hope to inspire and work alongside respective bodies to develop new skills and management in order to successfully address the needs of the ageing population. As soon as the ageing populations are targeted as a worthwhile segment, a whole range of new products and services can be expected to improve their quality of life. New skills, management focus, and strategies may be necessary for successfully addressing the ageing population.
