The Business of Aging Reports on
How Older Adults are "Hacking Longevity"
Hacking Longevity
is the first study to examine how three generations of adults over the age of 50 - Generation X, Baby Boomers, and Silent Generation - are thinking about and planning for longer lives. Until now, the idea of increased longevity has been mostly conceptual and aspirational. Through a rigorous research process, Hacking Longevity examination, provides insights on how brands and organizations can better serve consumers of the longevity economy. The study was conducted in the Fall of 2017 and Winter of 2018 and led by Lori Bitter at
The Business of Aging
.
The study debuted at
AARP's Living 100
event in Washington, D.C. in April. This timeline illustrates key inflection points in people's lives as they age, as revealed in the data. To learn more about Hacking Longevity, join us in June at
The
Silicon Valley Boomer Venture Summit
where we will provide a briefing for attendees.
Hacking Longevity was conducted in partnership with Collaborata, and underwritten by AARP, Wells Fargo Advisors, GreatCall, and Proctor and Gamble Ventures.
