We know more about reducing dementia risk than ever. The challenge now is helping people act.
The latest AgeTech Insights Report, Unlocking Dementia Prevention: The Role of Technology in Supporting Brain Health, draws on insights from more than 2,000 adults aged 40+ in Canada and the United Kingdom.
While 68% of respondents agree that dementia risk can be reduced, only 17% feel more than moderately confident in their ability to reduce their own risk. These and other findings show that moving from awareness to action requires more than information. People need support that reflects the specific barriers they face.
The report examines:
🧠Where gaps in knowledge and confidence remain
🚧 What prevents people from adopting brain-healthy behaviours
📱 How technology can support motivation, habit-building and access to trusted guidance
