« Ageing and Economic Growth»

It may seem paradoxical to link aging and growth, this is because the mainstream analysis often views seniors as a burden for public finance and the healthcare system. Furthermore, elderly people are supposedly not directly participating in the creation of value.
In practice, aging which is a global phenomenon, requires to rethink and adapt the economic model at a fast pace.
Working beyond 60+; robotics; healthcare infrastructure and demand; planning funded pension systems; and training needs of seniors are opportunities for new developments in the economics of ageing era.
