The Super Age, coined by demographic futurist Bradley Schurman — author of The Super Age: Decoding Our Demographic Destiny — is a future fast approaching: where those over 65 will outnumber our youth, driven by longer lifespans and declining birth rates. This seismic demographic shift presents both opportunities and challenges for society. Countries like Italy, Japan, and Germany have already reached the Super Age, and many others will follow suit. If we fail to prepare, we risk economic stagnation, increased isolation of at-risk populations, and the decline of rural communities — as witnessed in present-day Russia, exacerbated by its high-mortality invasion of Ukraine.

In this episode, Bradley Schurman joins us to shed light on the road ahead. Governments and businesses must be nimble, adapting to a dwindling workforce and the strains it may impose on social programs. Architects and designers, in turn, bear the responsibility of creating inclusive environments that cater to individuals of all ages. And let us not forget the marketers, who must keenly attend to the needs and desires of our older consumers. Through these proactive measures, we can harness the immense potential of the Super Age, a future defined by extended and healthier lives, intergenerational cooperation, and the exciting exploration of new markets. Listen, learn, and enjoy!
