In-depth exploration of Shanghai's silver economy: Breaking the "last mile" experience barrier between technology and the elderly population.

What does Silver Economy look like? Different from the traditional impression of monotonous and boring elderly products, the silver products displayed in the innovative product experience hall of the Shanghai Elderly Expo are full of warmth and ingenuity. The shopping cart commonly used by the elderly can be transformed into a seat with a simple operation; the size of a recording pen detection device can show heart rate and alcohol index just by fitting the skin; specially designed sofa can be remotely controlled to change angles and slopes, allowing elderly people to get up without effort when lying down...Recently, a journalist from Securities Times conducted a visit to a silver store in Shanghai and learned that this city's first silver store, which has not been open for a month, has become a popular store among the elderly in Shanghai. By the end of the third week of its opening, the store's sales exceeded 400,000 yuan, with service intention orders for age-friendly renovations reaching approximately 1.49 million yuan. Yang Jingling, the operator of Shanghai Silver Store, said in an interview with Securities Times that currently, there are pain points in the silver economy market such as scarcity of "middle layer" products, lack of experience and trust, and "digital divide". The original intention of setting up the Shanghai Silver Store is to break the "last meter" experience barrier between technology for the elderly and the elderly population.
