9.  Boomers and Beyond: Planning for the Next Generation

While the senior living industry continues to prepare for Baby Boomers, of whom all will have reached retirement age by 2030, now is a critical moment for organizations to begin future-proofing their communities to ensure they remain viable and sustainable for generations to come. In anticipation of the next generations, the speakers will highlight a series of strategic initiatives that they believe will be critical in shaping the future of senior living.
