Advances in medicine have the promise to extend lifespan to 100 years or beyond, yet with age often comes cognitive impairment. For the past three months, clinicians, engineers, patients and entrepreneurs from around the world have been submitting their ideas on how to support cognitive function in the aging population. Join us at the main stage to watch the four finalists of the online challenge pitch their ideas in front of a live panel of celebrity judges who will pick a winner!
