Abstract

WisdomOfAge is a platform for knowledge transfer connecting retirees with experience in technological fields with industrial companies. The goal is to establish a mentor-mentee relationship between both parties. Companies will benefit from vast practical experience of seniors and the seniors from an opportunity to actively participate in their former field of work with a workload as high as they choose. This possibility promotes an individualized approach to retirement, active aging, and awareness of the work experience of (soon to be) retirees. Since the project is developed in close cooperation with older people, it also fosters inclusiveness within the technological development process.
