The Upside of Aging: A Conversation in the Pavilion
Mike Morseberger, Barry Rand, Frida Lewis, Steve Knapp, Mark Friedman, Hasi Cohen, Henry Cisneros, Bob Wheelan, Brooke, Jeff Schatz, Andrew, Rita, Gary, Britta
This panel identifies the global demographic shift toward an aging population as a critical challenge comparable to climate change, highlighting that current societal structures fail to utilize the substantial human capital of older adults. Experts argue that sustainable solutions require integrating age-friendly urban planning, reforming higher education to serve lifelong learners, and implementing financial policies that secure retirement and workforce participation. Ultimately, the discussion advocates for a cultural transition from viewing aging as decline to recognizing it as a generative force, with predictions of widespread adoption of "village" support networks and expanded health technologies within the next decade.

Longevity Is Opportunity Riding the Demographic Wave (updated)
Pinchas Cohen, Michael Hodin, Dan Houston, Paul Irving, Jody Holtzman, Hasi Cohen
This event analyzes the critical intersection of rapidly aging demographics, broken retirement financial models, and the widening gap between lifespan and healthspan in the Western world. It highlights how exponential population shifts are driving a trillion-dollar market opportunity centered on Alzheimer's prevention, "encore careers," and workforce retention strategies for adults over 50. By refraging aging as a source of economic growth rather than a burden, the discussion presents nonlinear policy solutions and private sector innovations necessary to sustain global productivity and financial stability.
