    Description

    Globally, about 25 percent of the population is under 15 years of age and 10 percent is over 65 years of age. Africa has the youngest population worldwide. In Sub-Saharan Africa, more than 40 percent of the population is below 15 years, and only three percent are above 65, indicating the low life expectancy in several of the countries. In Europe, on the other hand, a higher share of the population is above 65 years than the population under 15 years. Fertility rates The high share of children and youth in Africa is connected to the high fertility rates on the continent. For instance, South Sudan and Niger have the highest population growth rates globally. However, about 50 percent of the world’s population live in countries with low fertility, where women have less than 2.1 children. Some countries in Europe, like Latvia and Lithuania, have experienced a population decline of one percent, and in the Cook Islands, it is even above two percent. In Europe, the majority of the population was previously working-aged adults with few dependents, but this trend is expected to reverse soon, and it is predicted that by 2050, the older population will outnumber the young in many developed countries. Growing global population As of 2025, there are 8.1 billion people living on the planet, and this is expected to reach more than nine billion before 2040. Moreover, the global population is expected to reach 10 billions around 2060, before slowing and then even falling slightly by 2100. As the population growth rates indicate, a significant share of the population increase will happen in Africa.

    Description

    Gerontology Aging Market Outlook



    The global gerontology aging market size was valued at USD 780 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 1,350 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period. This robust growth is primarily driven by the increasing aging population worldwide, advancements in medical technology, and rising awareness about the importance of elderly care.



    One of the primary growth factors for the gerontology aging market is the rapidly increasing elderly population across the globe. With advancements in healthcare, life expectancy has significantly increased, resulting in a higher percentage of the population being aged 65 and above. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that by 2050, the global population aged 60 years and older will total 2 billion, up from 900 million in 2015. This demographic shift necessitates enhanced geriatric care services and facilities, thus fueling market growth.



    Another significant driver is the rising prevalence of chronic diseases among the elderly. Conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and dementia are more common in older adults. Managing these chronic illnesses requires specialized care and services, which contributes to the expansion of the gerontology aging market. Additionally, the increasing awareness and focus on preventive healthcare measures among the elderly population is pushing the demand for wellness and prevention services.



    Technological advancements in healthcare are also playing a crucial role in the growth of the gerontology aging market. Innovations such as telemedicine, remote patient monitoring, and electronic health records are enhancing the quality of care for the elderly. These technologies enable continuous monitoring of health conditions, timely medical interventions, and better management of chronic diseases, thereby improving the overall healthcare experience for the aging population.



    Regionally, North America holds a significant share of the gerontology aging market due to its advanced healthcare infrastructure, high healthcare expenditure, and the presence of major market players. Europe follows closely, driven by a large elderly population and government initiatives supporting elderly care. The Asia Pacific region is expected to witness the highest growth rate during the forecast period, attributed to the increasing aging population, improving healthcare infrastructure, and rising healthcare awareness.



    Service Type Analysis



    The gerontology aging market is segmented by service type into home care, adult day care, and institutional care. Each of these services addresses different needs and preferences of the elderly population, contributing uniquely to the market's growth.



    Home care services are gaining popularity due to the preference for aging in place among the elderly. These services include personal care, medical care, and assistance with daily activities, allowing older adults to stay in their homes while receiving necessary support. The convenience and comfort of home care, coupled with technological advancements such as telehealth and home monitoring systems, are driving the growth of this segment.



    Adult day care services provide a safe and supportive environment for elderly individuals during the day, offering social activities, meals, and healthcare services. These facilities are particularly beneficial for older adults who require supervision and assistance but do not need full-time residential care. The increasing number of dual-income families and the need for respite care for caregivers are significant factors contributing to the growth of the adult day care segment.



    Institutional care, which includes nursing homes and assisted living facilities, remains a crucial component of the gerontology aging market. These institutions provide comprehensive care for elderly individuals who require constant medical attention and support. The demand for institutional care is driven by the rising prevalence of chronic diseases and the need for specialized care that cannot be provided at home. Additionally, the development of advanced facilities with specialized units for conditions like dementia and Alzheimer’s disease is boosting this segment.

    Description

    The unprecedented demographic shifts toward an aging population pose significant challenges to global healthcare systems. Understanding the heterogeneity in disease prevalence among the elderly is crucial for effective public health strategies. Using prevalence data of 85 types of age-related diseases, we calculated the global heterogeneity of disease distribution by the Shannon Diversity Index (SHDI). We observed significant geographic variations in disease heterogeneity, with higher SHDI values in high-income Western countries such as the United States of America and Sweden and lower in South Asia and Oceania (p < 0.05). In 2021, SHDI values in elderly populations (age ≥ 60 years) for Europe and North America countries were an average of 1.12 times higher than in Oceania. While SHDI increases toward higher ages (for instance, in 2021, SHDI for adults above 95 years is 1.06 times higher than for ages between 60 and 64 years), the global SHDI tends to decrease nonlinearly over time. From 1990 to 2021, global age-standardized SHDI (age ≥ 60 years) averagely decreased by 1.2% for both men and women. Our analysis further revealed that socio-economic factors (e.g., socio-demographic indices, governance) strongly impacted global SHDI changes, while climatic and environmental factors (e.g., extreme climate and air pollution) showed significant differences across genders. Our study highlights the need for implementing comprehensive healthcare strategies, focusing on reducing health disparities and addressing environmental and socio-economic determinants to address inequalities in age-related diseases effectively.

    In 2023, about 17.7 percent of the American population was 65 years old or over; an increase from the last few years and a figure which is expected to reach 22.8 percent by 2050. This is a significant increase from 1950, when only eight percent of the population was 65 or over. A rapidly aging population In recent years, the aging population of the United States has come into focus as a cause for concern, as the nature of work and retirement is expected to change to keep up. If a population is expected to live longer than the generations before, the economy will have to change as well to fulfill the needs of the citizens. In addition, the birth rate in the U.S. has been falling over the last 20 years, meaning that there are not as many young people to replace the individuals leaving the workforce. The future population It’s not only the American population that is aging -- the global population is, too. By 2025, the median age of the global workforce is expected to be 39.6 years, up from 33.8 years in 1990. Additionally, it is projected that there will be over three million people worldwide aged 100 years and over by 2050.

    In 2023, just under 42 percent of Sub-Saharan Africa's population was below the age of 15; in contrast, this figure was just 18 percent in Europe & Central Asia and in North America. Across these regions, the share of the population aged 65 and over inversely correlated with the younger population, in that the regions with the largest share aged under 15 had the smallest share aged over 64, and vice versa. For most regions, the share of the population aged between 15 and 64 years ranged between 64 and 65 percent, except for Sub-Saharan Africa where it was below 56 percent. These trends can largely be explained by looking at global demographic development.

    Elderly Oriented Adaptation Market Outlook



    The global elderly oriented adaptation market size was valued at approximately USD 150 billion in 2023, and is expected to reach USD 300 billion by 2032, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8%. This significant growth is driven by several factors, including an aging global population, increased focus on elderly care, and advancements in adaptive technologies and services designed to enhance the quality of life for the elderly.



    One of the primary growth factors in this market is the rapidly aging global population. According to the World Health Organization, the number of people aged 60 years and older is expected to more than double by 2050, reaching around 2.1 billion. This demographic shift is creating an unprecedented demand for products and services tailored to meet the needs of the elderly. As populations age, there is an increasing emphasis on maintaining independence and quality of life, which is driving the adoption of various elderly-oriented adaptations, from mobility aids to assistive technologies.



    Additionally, technological advancements are playing a crucial role in the growth of the elderly oriented adaptation market. Innovations in healthcare and assistive technologies, such as advanced mobility aids, smart home systems, and wearable health monitoring devices, are making it easier for the elderly to manage their daily lives and health conditions. These advancements are not only improving the safety and well-being of the elderly but are also reducing the burden on caregivers and healthcare systems, thereby fostering market growth.



    Moreover, increasing government support and favorable policies are contributing to market expansion. Many governments around the world are recognizing the importance of elder care and are implementing policies and programs aimed at supporting this demographic group. Funding for research and development in geriatric care, subsidies for adaptive equipment, and the promotion of age-friendly environments are some of the initiatives driving market growth. These supportive measures are encouraging businesses to invest in and develop innovative products and services for the elderly.



    Regionally, North America is currently the largest market for elderly oriented adaptations, driven by a well-established healthcare system, high disposable incomes, and a significant elderly population. However, the Asia Pacific region is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period, owing to its large aging population, increasing healthcare expenditure, and growing awareness about elderly care solutions. Europe is also a significant market, supported by strong government initiatives and an aging demographic. The Middle East & Africa and Latin America are emerging markets, with growth potential driven by improving healthcare infrastructure and rising awareness.



    Product Type Analysis



    The elderly oriented adaptation market can be segmented by product type into mobility aids, daily living aids, assistive furniture, communication aids, and others. Each of these segments plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality of life for the elderly by addressing specific needs and challenges associated with aging.



    Mobility aids, such as wheelchairs, walkers, and scooters, are essential for maintaining independence and mobility among the elderly. The demand for these products is driven by the increasing prevalence of mobility impairments and chronic conditions such as arthritis and osteoporosis. Technological advancements in this segment, including the development of lightweight and foldable designs, as well as the integration of smart features like GPS and automated braking systems, are further boosting market growth.



    Daily living aids encompass a wide range of products designed to assist the elderly in performing everyday tasks. These include items such as adaptive utensils, dressing aids, and bathing equipment. The growing focus on enabling the elderly to live independently for as long as possible is fueling the demand for these products. Innovations in ergonomic design and the use of non-slip materials, as well as the development of automated solutions like robotic feeding arms, are enhancing the usability and appeal of daily living aids.



    Assistive furniture, including adjustable beds, lift chairs, and specialized seating solutions, is another critical segment within the elderly oriented adaptation market. These products are designed to provide comfort and support, reduce the risk of falls, and faci
