Experts point to the “Longevity Economy” as a promising new opportunity for Thailand
Thailand is currently entering a full-scale aging society, which is leading to the growth of what is known as the “Longevity Economy,” an economy focused on long and high-quality life. Experts view this as a significant opportunity to help drive the country's economic growth in the future.
Recently, the Future Food Hub organized a forum to connect the food, health, and service industries, focusing on the development of Future Food products that meet the needs of the elderly and health-conscious groups to improve their quality of life.
This concept is not limited to food alone but also encompasses the application of technology and innovation in the service and hospital sectors to create an ecosystem that supports preventive healthcare, which will help reduce the country's long-term public health expenditure.
This gathering of the business sector marks a significant step in preparing Thailand to become a regional hub for health and food, which will help attract investors and generate new revenue for Thai entrepreneurs who are ready to adapt to the era of the longevity economy.
In summary, developing an economy focused on longevity is not only beneficial to the elderly in Thailand but is also a key strategy that will help sustainably increase the country's competitiveness in the global market.
