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!
