By 2050, one in three people in Europe will be over 60. For care systems, that is a strain; for the economy, it is a market already growing faster than most other sectors. Łukasiewicz – PORT answers both with Senior Living: an open agreement meant to connect scientific research with the real needs of older adults, and whose directions the signatories will define together.
