2 exciting days, 13 engaging keynotes, 6 concurrent think tank sessions, 14 think tank speakers

According to the World Health Organisation, by 2030, one in six people in the world will be aged 60 years or over. 

This growing population of Baby Boomers is more professional, more active, better educated, tech-savvy, and living longer. Age will not define them. 

They want better experiences with plenty of personal lifestyle and care choices as they age. So, it’s time to set a new vision for how they can live their life well in the future by bringing together all the stakeholders. 

The inaugural ARIIA Conference will be held in Adelaide on 15 & 16 of May, with a world-class line-up of thinkers and industry experts to find real solutions to address the changing needs of our ageing world. 

 Facing the Future: Aged Care 2030 and Beyond presents the ideal environment for meeting and networking with innovators and futurists, who want to make a real impact for positive ageing.

Facing the Future: Aged Care 2030 and Beyond will feature the best and sharpest minds from several sectors across the aged care ecosystem for two days of inspiring debate and conversation. 

If you are an aged care sector CEO, manager or worker, or provider of products, services, or digital technology, or a researcher, architect, robotics engineer, scientist, advanced manufacturer, allied health clinician, lifestyle coordinator, community support worker, nurse, family carer, aged care consumer, or simply want to make a difference to the future, then this is an opportunity not to be missed.
