AGETECH AEON #2 – Can Tech Care For Us?

Abby Bloom, Catherine Ball and I (along with Sally Dominguez) are heading back to the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas to see the latest innovations in ‘agetech’ – technologies that help restore ability and increase agency as we age. Is agetech “the” solution to the crisis in care, or is it, instead, kit that helps support us as we transition toward a culture where care is a central and valued activity?

Three great examples of agetech mentioned in the podcast:

Cadense – Grippy sneakers

Hapta – L’Oreal’s amazing tech that gives people with tremors the ability to apply makeup

The Skip – adds a spring in your step, literally!

Betabank Episode 6 – THE BUSINESS OF BETABANKING

Banks are not like other businesses. Starting them, funding them and running them – it’s all quite different from your run of the mill software-as-a-service technology startup. In a live event at Stone & Chalk Sydney, co-hosts Andrew Davis & Mark Pesce talk to four neobank founders about what it takes to launch a neobank – and succeed.

Our amazing panelists are:

Dominic Pym, co-founder UP Banking;
Rob Bell, CEO of 86 400;
Simon Costello, co-founder of Frankie Financial;
Alex Twigg, CIO of Judo Bank.

Big thanks to the Stone & Chalk team for making this happen!
