Hi everyone, good day. I am a finalist in the "From Dough to Dreams" innovative business idea competition. I will pitch my concept to a live panel of judges next Monday afternoon at the Lifelong Learning Institute. Please kindly support me by viewing and liking my 1-minute video pitch in the embedded YouTube link. Thank you very much for your support. I appreciate it.
Green Care Tech - Integrated Health & Wellness for All
On my 45th birthday, I pondered upon my own mortality and aging process, as well as that of my peers. Many countries such as Singapore, Japan, Korea, and Italy are facing an aging population crisis, as well as declining birth and fertility rates. Senior citizens around the world are increasingly battling with health related concerns such as cancers, strokes, heart diseases, Parkinson’s disease, dementia, Alzheimer's disease, cataracts, immobility, mental and emotional health problems and the list goes on. No one is being spared. Not even if you are royalty or a celebrity. There is currently an inadequate supply and fragmentation in the provision of integrative elderly care services. The market gap and lack in elderly care was also being reported by the news media. Even though there are bits of resources out there, they are at best scanty and scattered. It is also a time consuming and frustrating endeavour to try to collate and search for what you need by yourself. The government has earmarked the care economy as one of the fastest grow sectors, alongside the green and digital economies. My idea fuses all 3 into a one-stop web portal and mobile app solution that has a user friendly interface that allows even the least digitally savvy to quickly navigate and search for the support, knowledge, and treatment options that they require for their respective ailments or problems. The user friendly integrative platform and ancillary mobile application can be universally used by anyone. The functional platform and mobile applications will offer holistic solutions, education and services that synergistically ties in with government agencies, medical facilities, and various institutions to provide an extensive range of interconnected and co-related wellness services and feasible medical care solutions such as tele-medicine, counselling advice, sustainable eco tours, healthy diet workshops, organic urban farming activities, meditation classes, and much more.
