    Description

    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.

    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

    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.

    Abstract

    Purpose: The multi-country Study on Global Ageing and Adult Health (SAGE) is run by the World Health Organization's Multi-Country Studies unit in the Innovation, Information, Evidence and Research Cluster. SAGE is part of the unit's Longitudinal Study Programme which is compiling longitudinal data on the health and well-being of adult populations, and the ageing process, through primary data collection and secondary data analysis. INDEPTH SAGE Wave 1 (2006/7) provides data on the health and well-being of adults in: Ghana, India and South Africa.

    Objectives: To obtain reliable, valid and comparable health, health-related and well-being data over a range of key domains for adult and older adult populations in nationally representative samples To examine patterns and dynamics of age-related changes in health and well-being using longitudinal follow-up of a cohort as they age, and to investigate socio-economic consequences of these health changes To supplement and cross-validate self-reported measures of health and the anchoring vignette approach to improving comparability of self-reported measures, through measured performance tests for selected health domains To collect health examination and biomarker data that improves reliability of morbidity and risk factor data and to objectively monitor the effect of interventions

    Additional Objectives: To generate large cohorts of older adult populations and comparison cohorts of younger populations for following-up intermediate outcomes, monitoring trends, examining transitions and life events, and addressing relationships between determinants and health, well-being and health-related outcomes To develop a mechanism to link survey data to demographic surveillance site data To build linkages with other national and multi-country ageing studies To improve the methodologies to enhance the reliability and validity of health outcomes and determinants data To provide a public-access information base to engage all stakeholders, including national policy makers and health systems planners, in planning and decision-making processes about the health and well-being of older adults

    Methods: INDEPTH SAGE's first full round of data collection included persons aged 50 years and older in the health and demographic surveillance sites. All persons aged 50+ years (for example, spouses and siblings) were invited to participate. Standardized SAGE survey instruments were used in all countries consisting of two main parts: 1) household questionnaire; 2) individual questionnaire. The procedures for including country-specific adaptations to the standardized questionnaire and translations into local languages from English follow those developed by and used for the World Health Survey.

Furthermore, technological advancements and increased internet penetration have made it easier for older adults to access online services, including dating platforms.



    Another significant growth factor is the changing societal attitudes towards dating and relationships among the elderly. In the past, seniors were often perceived as asexual or uninterested in romantic relationships. However, this perception is rapidly changing as more elderly individuals seek companionship and romantic connections. The increasing acceptance of online dating as a legitimate and safe means of meeting potential partners has also contributed to the market's growth. Media portrayals and success stories of elderly couples who met online have further normalized the concept, encouraging more seniors to explore online dating options.



    The convenience and accessibility of elderly dating platforms are also major factors driving market growth. These platforms offer user-friendly interfaces, personalized matchmaking algorithms, and a wide range of features tailored to the needs and preferences of older adults. For instance, many platforms provide safety features such as background checks and privacy controls to ensure a secure and comfortable dating experience. Additionally, the availability of mobile apps has made it easier for seniors to connect with potential partners on the go, further boosting the market's expansion.



    The emergence of the Online Love Rush phenomenon has significantly influenced the elderly dating platform market. This trend highlights the increasing enthusiasm among seniors to explore romantic relationships through digital means. The Online Love Rush is characterized by a surge in online interactions and connections, driven by the convenience and accessibility of modern technology. For many elderly individuals, this represents a new avenue to rediscover companionship and love, often leading to meaningful and lasting relationships. As more seniors become comfortable with digital communication, the Online Love Rush is expected to continue shaping the dynamics of the dating market, encouraging platforms to innovate and cater to this growing demographic.



    From a regional perspective, North America and Europe are currently the largest markets for elderly dating platforms, driven by a high percentage of the elderly population and widespread internet access. However, the Asia Pacific region is expected to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period. This is due to the rapidly aging population in countries like Japan and China, coupled with increasing internet penetration and the growing acceptance of online dating. Latin America and the Middle East & Africa regions also present significant growth opportunities, albeit at a slower pace, as internet accessibility and societal attitudes towards online dating continue to evolve.



    Service Type Analysis



    The elderly dating platform market can be segmented by service type into four main categories: online dating, mobile dating, matchmaking services, and social dating. Each service type caters to different preferences and technological comforts of the elderly demographic. Online dating platforms have traditionally been the most popular, offering a wide range of features such as profile creation, search filters, and messaging services. These platforms are often accessed through desktop computers, making them suitable for older adults who may not be as comfortable using smartphones.
