Sundberg-Ferar, a pioneer in innovative product and experience design, took center stage at the AARP ATC (AgeTech Collaborative) exhibit at CES 2024, delivering a compelling talk to a full audience. The session, titled “Inclusivity and Human-Centered Design for AgeTech Products,” highlighted the company’s commitment to shaping the future of technology with a focus on enhancing the lives of aging communities.

Sundberg-Ferar speakers, Grey Parker, (Principal and CEO) and David Byron, (Director of Innovation Strategy) shed light on the transformative power of human-centered design in the age-tech space. The AARP’s commanding presence at CES, boasting the one of the largest booths, underscored the urgency and momentum of age-tech innovations showcased throughout the event.
