As August comes to a close, Europeans who’ve spent the month on the beach will be coming back to the office and trying to remember their logins, and Americans will be celebrating this long Labor Day weekend roasting things on grills, or themselves on the playa. Around the world, September is a busy period and for many is the start of conference silly season, with some road warriors attending back-to-back events pretty much solid through to November. In this hectic period, we’d like to draw attention to one event in particular - that we think will rock your socks off: The Asia Pacific Summit supported by Aging2.0. 

The 2017 Global Startup Search searched the world for the best aging-focused startups. This year, roughly 300 startups from 17 countries applied to pitch at the 30 Global Startup Search local chapter pitch events. After an impressive series of pitch events in March and April across 12 countries, 29 startups were selected as Semi-Finalists. To learn more about the Semi-Finalists, click here.
