Chapters

What are chapters?

We approach the creation of a global chapter like a startup. We want to understand what drives you and why you’re passionate about aging innovation. We assist with chapter setup, and will provide you with the tools and connections necessary for success. Creating a chapter is a nimble, iterative process in search of a sustainable business model. Aging2.0 chapters consist of individuals including entrepreneurs, industry experts, investors, press, older adults, academics, nonprofit professionals, government officials and those from other walks of life.
