In 2007, Japan became a ‘super-aged society’ with the percentage of people aged 65 or older exceeding 21% of the country’s population. Ageing has accelerated ever since. The population of people aged 65 or older is forecast to increase to 36.77 million in 2025 and peak at 39.35 million in 2042. Sumitomo Group companies are working to support the lives of seniors who need care in various aspects such as developing and providing ICT equipment, monitoring system that evaluates the mobility of people and lightweight portable folding ramps.

Super-aging will accelerate not only in developed countries but also in the developing world over the next 50 years. Japan is a forerunner of this trend. This is an opportunity to set a good example for the world by pooling our talents and energy to resolve the issues.
