Everything Marketers Should Know about Longevity Consumers All in One Place: The What’s Next Boomer Summit

2025-02-11T10:17:49+00:00

On March 28th the ‘What’s Next Boomer Summit’ will gather business leaders to discuss the future of the longevity market. The term baby boomer may have lost its edge over time, but those whom it encompasses certainly have not. They are the most lucrative consumer demographic. Classically, the markets for luxury cars, medical devices, and real estate are largely dominated by consumers over 50. Going deeper, an article by Immersion Active in 2017 showed that Baby Boomers or ‘longevity’ consumers account for 42% of all after tax income in the US. In addition, they are twice as likely to plan a new business in 2018.

The spending power is more than evident, plus it is a market which can affect us all. Therefore the ‘What’s Next Boomer Summit’ has been an important event for the past 15 years. Mary Furlong is the leader behind these conferences, she leads a strategy consulting team for businesses in the longevity market. Mary Furlong strongly emphasizes the importance of startup businesses within the longevity market ecosystem.

This conference brings together small businesses all the way up to fortune 100 companies to share their insights in a great one-day event. Here are just a few topics being discussed:

  • Investment Forecast for the Longevity Market
  • Trends in Sales and Marketing
  • Voice First Tech Design
  • Scaling your Business in the Longevity Market
  • Technology and Senior Housing
  • Insights in Social Strategy and the dominance of SEO

This year the speaker list looks great with talks with leaders from Hasbro, Home Care Assistance, Google and many more. iMedia is very proud to be a partner this year, and our president Josh Iverson is excited to be moderating the talk centered around trends driving sales and marketing in the longevity market.

Best not to let ‘What’s Next Boomer Summit’ pass you by this March.

Practical AR and VR, The Digital Leap is Closer

2025-02-11T10:17:49+00:00

In-Browser VR

Though many marketers and designers are aware of the supposed revolution in digital media due to the commercial launch of VR devices, few realize the potential to create immersive VR experiences without the need for specialized hardware.

What do we mean?

iMedia now offers VR services that do not require the user to have a VR headset.

It is now affordable to use Virtual Reality technology such as 360-degree cameras and computer-generated graphics to give your digital content an unmatched customer experience. As of 2018, both Lowes and Walmart have conducted VR training programs for both customers and employees. VR continues to be an outstanding teaching and story conveyance tool for marketers and designers.

Before, some businesses had the budgeting edge to be early adopters. It is now practical and affordable to virtually provide a tour through a museum exhibit, a company story in rich detail, or an employee training program.

Mobile AR

On mobile, there are opportunities in the space of AR or Augmented Reality. iMedia is devoted to developing apps that engage users in finding information and creative content while they go about their day. Efforts by Nintendo with ‘Pokemon Go’ and more recently the New York Times have only begun to scratch the surface of potential AR applications.

Without hardware requirements and high costs, the only limit of VR and AR is imagination. There are opportunities for existing businesses as well as opportunities for brand new ventures.

Reach out to us, and let’s build something engaging.
