Antara builds India's senior-care ecosystem
India is getting older, with more people over 60.
Right now, 11% of Indians are seniors, but by 2050, that will be 21%.
This means more people will live alone and need special care.
A company called Antara is working to build a system to take care of these seniors.
They are doing this because families are smaller and more people have two jobs, so they can't always take care of their elderly family members at home.
India's senior population is growing rapidly, currently at 11% and projected to reach 21% by 2050.
Antara is focused on building a senior-care ecosystem in India.
The need for senior care is driven by longer lifespans, shrinking family units, and dual-income households.
More seniors will age alone with complex care needs in the future.
Antara aims to address these challenges by developing a comprehensive senior-care system.
