Aging Analytics Agency’s new report outlines the Longevity Industry landscape in Singapore. It offers an in-depth overview of the history, present state and future of the Longevity Industry in Singapore. It profiles 30 native pioneers of longevity research in Singapore, 15 Longevity R&D centers, 10 non-governmental organizations, 15 thematic conferences from 2017 to 2019, 100 companies, and 80 investors in the Longevity sphere.

These tend to be small technocratic countries including those high on the World Economic Forum's Network Readiness Index.

Singapore is one such country. This report comprehensively documents the factors that make it well-suited as a global Longevity Industry hub, and explores how that potential could be further developed, particularly at a political level. In 2015, Singapore’s ministerial committee for aging has already launched an action plan for successful aging, consisting of a multi-pronged approach that includes preventive and active aging programs that begin at the early age of 40.

Singapore has also embraced the rising sector of AgeTech to help the country improve the quality of life and levels of social engagement of its elderly population. AgeTech technologies, which encompasses any digital technology that aid the elderly, are being rapidly
