Old School? Smart School! Vol.1 – Reinventing AgeTech

In the face of an aging population, Japan stands as a front-runner in global aging trends, often labeled as a country burdened with challenges. However, a paradigm shift is underway. The upcoming Old School? Smart School! Vol.1 takes place on April 23, 2026, at SivanS Lab Tokyo, aiming to redefine this narrative.

This event is not just a gathering; it’s a critical step for the AgeTech movement, transitioning from viewing aging as a mere cost to recognizing it as a burgeoning market filled with potential. Prominent leaders and players will discuss how to leverage technology effectively and introduce innovative approaches in the field of age care.

Why AgeTech Now?

Japan is experiencing unprecedented rates of aging, leading to a pressing need for effective solutions that bridge the gap in healthcare and social support. Despite technological advancements in other countries such as Israel and the U.S., Japanese practices remain largely traditional, often relying heavily on operational frameworks. This event brings together various stakeholders to explore how AgeTech can emerge as a solution rather than a burden.

By acting as a connection point between Japan and the global AgeTech narrative, this conference aims to kickstart discussions that could transform societal challenges into thriving industries.

Event Highlights

The Vol.1 focuses on innovative AgeTech solutions, including but not limited to:

• - Automated caregiving using vision-based AI to detect falls and streamline care documentation, thus freeing up caregivers’ time for direct care.
• - Implementation of preventative healthcare through everyday data, looking at developments like the Bathroom Health OS.
• - Early detection of health issues via cohabitation sensing, utilizing non-invasive monitoring to observe subtle changes in daily life.
