Abstract

Population ageing is one of the main problems of the advanced countries, which are defining tools to face the challenges derived from it. Technology development is opening new market opportunities and is presenting its candidature as one of the key tools to face consequences derived from this evolution. This paper presents FIK project as an example of this approach and as an initiative aiming to transform this challenge into an economic opportunity.
