Today is a day dedicated to the well-being of every individual. For the ESG Consortium, this aligns perfectly with the Social (“S”) pillar of ESG. We believe that as we advance technologically, we must never lose sight of the human spirit. Our mission this year is guided by two transformative philosophies:
- Human-Centric Technology (科技以人為本): We advocate for innovations that prioritize human dignity, ease of use, and emotional well-being. Technology should be a bridge, not a barrier.
- A Shared Future for Mankind (人類命運共同體): Our global challenges, particularly those related to aging, require a collective response. By supporting our elders today, we build a more resilient society for everyone tomorrow.
Spotlight on Gerontech: Innovation with a Heart
Our 2026 Inclusion Award places a significant emphasis on Gerontechnology (Gerontech). As our society ages, the need for smart, empathetic solutions has never been more urgent. We are looking for projects that:
1. Combat Cognitive Decline
Interactive technologies that provide mental stimulation are essential in the fight against Alzheimer’s Disease. We celebrate tools that keep senior minds active, curious, and engaged.
2. Provide Emotional Support
Modern Gerontech should do more than monitor health; it should foster connection. Whether through AI companionship or family-link platforms, reducing senior loneliness is a primary goal of social inclusion.
3. Foster Intergenerational Harmony
Our vision is a world where technology allows grandchildren and grandparents to share joy and experiences, regardless of physical distance.
