#240 Dominic Carter: Cracking Japan’s Business Code – From Market Research to Aging Tech – Part Two

If you think aging tech is just about nursing homes and health monitors, think again.  Dominic Carter, CEO of The Carter Group, is uncovering massive, untapped opportunities in the aging population—starting with Japan, one of the most aged countries in the world. From wearable tech that steadies shaky hands to high-tech bedsheets that improve sleep, he’s on a mission to rethink how we age. In Part 2, Dominic breaks down the challenges, cultural barriers, and business opportunities in aging tech. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, investor, or just navigating the realities of aging parents (which, let’s be honest, is most of us), this episode is packed with insights. Key Highlights of Our Interview: The Personal Push – “Watching my parents struggle with aging made me realize how much better it could be.” How a frustrating experience led to a game-changing business idea. The Tech Struggle is Real – “It’s not the technology that’s lacking—it’s the mindset around adopting it.” Why older generations resist helpful tech and what needs to change. The Future of Aging Tech – “We tested 26 products, but only a few stood out.” What works, what doesn’t, and the two innovations that are making a real impact. Japan’s Aging Economy – “30% of Japan’s population is over 65. That’s not a niche—it’s the future.” Why the biggest consumer market is also the most overlooked. Advice for Builders & Investors – “If you don’t listen to users, you’ll fail. It’s that simple.” The do’s and don’ts of launching a product in this space. ______________________ Connect with us: Host: Vince Chan | Guests: Dominic Carter ______________________ --Chief Change Officer-- Change Ambitiously.
