When Tech Meets The Elderly

1 out of 12 Malaysians is an older person, and the numbers of older persons are likely to increase to 11% of the Malaysian population, at 3.3 million people by 2020.  Between 2020 and 2046, Malaysia’s 65+ population will double from 7% to 14%. Homage is a tech company that provides on-demand holistic non-medical and medical services to seniors and adults, allowing them to age and recover at home with grace, control and dignity. PC Gan, Country Manager for Homage Malaysia and Gillian Tee, Founder and CEO of Homage based out of Singapore discuss more on this.
