Our Industry And Assisted Living

Government figures state that 19% of the UK population was aged 65 or over in 2019, that’s around 12.3 million people, with those in this age bracket, making up 24% of the population by 2043 (17.4 million people). Can smart home technology help support independent living for longer for people in this age group and those who are less able? Is our industry even capable of delivering these solutions?  In this episode we're joined by Chris Thorne from award-winning integrator, Imperium Building Systems, to find out.  We're grateful to our series partners AWE Europe, Sony and Distributed by Meridian for their backing. We support Together For Cinema.
