Joseph Coughlin is the director of a fascinating place called AgeLab.
AgeLab is a research program at MIT that is in the business of making life easier for older people. AgeLab is working in the areas of transportation, health care and housing. The lab does more than just dream about nifty gadgets and futuristic technology. It works on likely-to-succeed, marketable ideas and then gets them off the drawing boards and into the marketplace.
Coughlin is one of 12 people the Wall Street Journal has profiled in an article called “12 People Who Are changing Your Retirement.” You likely have never heard of most of these folks but they are developing products and services for today’s and tomorrow’s mature consumers.
Get acquainted with the work of Coughlin and the others because they are where the older consumer will be spending his or her retirement dollars.
