The silver tsunami 

A dark grey cloud over elderly care


It is an overwhelming fact: our population is getting older. You can already see the heavy impact of ageing on our society and it will only get bigger in the coming years.

  • Caregivers experience massive workload.
  • Healthcare institutions are struggling with increasingly tight care budgets.
  • Elderly must unfortunately sacrifice peace of mind, privacy and a dignified last years.


A view on 2030:


The population is ageing at lightning speed

4 million healthcare providers wanted

Fewer beds for more people

+ 57% people aged 80+

In EU, the number of people aged 80+ will increase by 57% between 2010 and 2030. Including 26% more older people with care needs.

+ 122% shortage of staff

The current shortage of 1.8 million care workers in the EU will rise to 4 million by 2030. An increase of 122% in just eight years.

-7% available beds

By 2028, there will be 5.36 hospital beds per 1,000 inhabitants in the EU. A drop of 7% in 5 years as need rises.

independently, safely and with dignity

Project developers & architects
Designers of tomorrow's care 

Retrofitting new smart technology into existing healthcare facilities is a slow and difficult process. This represents an opportunity for smart developers of new build healthcare projects. 

Integrating smart technologies from the start is not only easy and affordable; it makes healthcare buildings future-proof, creating added value for both clients and society. 

So a smart move both economically and socially.


"Immense respect for the developers and architects of healthcare projects. They bear the responsibility for creating the warm and dignified environment each of us is entitled to later."
