Technology is changing the rules about the way we age, giving us new tools to live longer and better.

The Silvers Summit is a partnership with the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) to explore the needs of an underserved population: people aged 45 and over.

Some Boomer facts worth noting:

• Boomers were born between 1946 and 1964
• 77 million baby boomers represent 28% of the U.S. population and account for 77% of all financial assets
• Every 7 seconds someone is turning 50
• By 2010, 108 million people will be over 45
• Households headed by someone 40 or older hold 91% of America’s net worth
• Boomers constitute 35% to 38% of Internet users
• The caregiving marketplace alone is $800 billion

Housed in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Covention Center during CES 2011 the Silvers Summit is both a 4 day exhibition and a day long thought leader conference. On our website you'll find video presentations of many of the conference sessions from 2010.

A list of Silvers Summit exhibitors includes companies as diverse as Myine Electronics (music/entertainment), Dakim (brain fitness), Jitterbug and Doro (senior-friendly phones), Wellcore  (a networking home system with motion detection ) and TV Ears (easy HDTV  with special amplification).  These are some of the most innovative products in the CE industry today.
