As the population ages, which nation will rise to lead innovation in the future?
Demographics of Innovation
takes a deep, investigative look at the link between economic growth,
innovation, vitality and entrepreneurship in an aging population, and
provides smart strategy for the future. Written by a Stanford-trained
economist and demographics expert, who is also a prominent internet
entrepreneur, this book examines demographic trends across nations and
digs into the divergence to find awakening innovation. An aging
population hampers growth; while many are focused on the care-related
financial burden, few have fully explored the ways in which a seismic
demographic shift could transform the face of global business. This book
charts the trends, connects the dots and reveals which nations will be
best placed to build an innovation economy and grow in the future.
Global
business is set to undergo a revolution as aging populations mired in
old thinking become left behind by younger, brighter, more
forward-looking generations. Innovation loss is the first step in
stagnation, so the question becomes: who will win and who will lose in
this new world order? This book presents clear analysis of the coming
demographic bomb, and proposes insightful strategy for the short and
long term.
- Delve into the aging of society and the economic issues it creates
- Learn how shifting demographics affects innovation and prosperity
- Examine trends in growth, policy and more alongside the rise in average age
- Make smarter planning decisions in light of the changing population
The
problems of overpopulation pale in comparison to the problem of aging
on a massive global scale. Demographics dictate growth rates, economic
equilibrium, interest rates and so much more. Demographics of Innovation
provides thought-provoking analysis and strategy for policy makers,
business leaders, investors, entrepreneurs and everyone concerned about
planning for an uncertain future.
