OUR BIG BET
Aging-in-place market
The aging-in-place market is trending due to the aging baby boomer population, advances in medicine and technology, and the desire for seniors to remain independent and in their homes as they age. Between 2007 and 2021, the number of senior households grew by 51.2%, while the number of non-senior households rose by a tepid 4.4%. As more baby boomers reach retirement age, seniors now account for a larger share of American households, making up more than a quarter (26.9%) of all households through 2021. This has led to a growing demand for products and services that support aging in place, including home modifications, health care services, and assistive technology.

- Use this angle: Focus on how Salesforce can offer businesses in the aging-in-place industry innovative solutions to better manage patient data, coordinate care between providers, and improve communication with patients and their families. Salesforce’s Health Cloud can help providers streamline operations, improve patient outcomes, and reduce costs. Additionally, Salesforce’s platform can provide insights into patient preferences, allowing providers to deliver more personalized care. One of the major challenges in the aging-in-place industry is coordinating care across multiple providers, and Salesforce can help by providing a centralized platform for communication and collaboration.
