Agetech Podcast: "The Hidden Goldmine for AgeTech Founders"
Interview with Richard Caro about the Longevity Explorer Community
Keren Etkin (the Gerontechnologist) interviewed Richard Caro on her Agetech podcast recently (below).
She introduces the podcast by describing Tech-enhanced Life and the Longevity Explorers as “The Hidden Goldmine for Agetech Founders”. Hat tip to the Longevity Explorers. :)
Here is Keren’s introduction to the podcast:
What do older people want? That’s the trillion dollar question that’s been boggling AgeTech startups for years.
Customer discovery and user research might seem like a hard thing to do if you’re a small startup strapped for resources, but my personal belief is that you shouldn’t build anything until you talk to potential users (not just your grandmother). But before diving into user interviews, I always like to start with some desk research, and one fantastic resource for that is Tech Enhanced Life.
In this episode of The AgeTech Podcast, I sat down with Richard Caro – founder of Tech-enhanced Life and the Longevity Explorers, to try and answer this question. We dive into why most products miss the mark, what older adults actually want, and how you can get early-stage insights (even on a budget). Enjoy the episode – and don’t forget to subscribe if you want more of these honest, nerdy conversations about the future of aging.
