Throwback Thursday!

The article (click/tap to read it ) directly below is from 2015, but is still relevant today. TechForAging’s founder spoke with Dennis Boyle, a founding member of top design firm IDEO, and keynote speaker at a “tech fair” held at the Computer Museum in 2018.

At 90, She’s Designing Tech For Aging Boomers
Barbara Beskind stands out in youth-obsessed Silicon Valley. She inspires designers at the IDEO firm to think about the needs of older generations: What if your glasses could help you remember people?

The title of Mr. Boyle’s keynote talk was “Seniors Shaping Technology: Your Opinion Matters!”. He noted two “Design on Aging” documents (“pdfs”), referenced below, and available to download if desired.

This second article is a commentary on the 2018 event:
