We are standing in the middle of a demographic revolution.
People are living and working longer than ever and yet workplaces, governments and institutions are largely ignoring what’s coming.
Everyone ages.
And unless we step up, millions will be left behind.
This evening is for leaders, thinkers, employers, and change-makers who know we can do better and who want to be part of the movement reshaping the future of work for our generation and the next.
Age Against the Machine isn’t just another book launch.
It’s a call to action and a playbook for what comes next:
Part one explains why we must act.
Part two gives you the tools to do it.
Join us to step into a conversation that’s long overdue and to connect with the people shaping real change.
