Gerontech in Japan

Japan Gerontech

An opportunity for Swiss Companies

The world’s leading economies are confronted to the reality of the aging of their populations. Japan stands at the forefront of this socio-economical challenge. In 2015, 26,7% of the Japanese population was aged 65 and over. Forecasts show that one person out of three will be over 65 by 2030, and one out of five over 75 (super-aging segment), with about 250,000 seniors 100 and over at that time.

This factor is aggravated by high life expectancy and a low birthrate that have led the country into a steep demographic decline since the 1990s (source: Japanese National Institute ofPopulation and Social Security Research).
