The expected decline in household size, combined with a rapidly aging population, is poised to contribute to the expansion of the market for services catering to the elderly and persons with disabilities. The reduction in household size is linked to a decrease in the number of individuals living together as a family unit. As of November 2022, data from the Public Policy Institute of California, a US-based non-profit institute, indicates a significant decrease in the average number of people per household, reaching 2.85 in 2021. The trend continued with a further 1.4% decline to 2.81 in 2022. Additionally, the rising aging population is creating heightened demand for services tailored to elderly individuals, thereby boosting market revenues. According to a report from the World Health Organization (WHO) in October 2022, it is projected that one in six people worldwide will be 60 or older by 2030, and by 2050, there will be 2.1 billion individuals aged 60 or older. The number of individuals aged 80 or older is expected to increase by 426 million between 2020 and 2050. The increased need for care services for the aging population contributes to the demand for services for the elderly and disabled, thereby propelling the growth of the market.

The rising prevalence of chronic diseases is anticipated to further propel the growth of the market for services for the elderly and persons with disabilities. Chronic diseases, also known as non-communicable diseases (NCDs), encompass long-term medical conditions that progress slowly over time and persist for extended periods, often for the duration of a person's life. Chronic diseases often necessitate prolonged care and management, particularly in old age. This heightened demand for ongoing care services includes medical support, nursing, and personal assistance. For example, as of January 2022, research published by the American Cancer Society, a US-based health organization, estimates 609,360 cancer deaths and 1.9 million new cancer cases in 2022 in the US alone, averaging around 1,670 fatalities per day. Consequently, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is a driving force behind the growth of the market for services for the elderly and persons with disabilities.

For example, Eindhoven-based Bright Cape has developed SARA, which stands for Social and Autonomous Robotic Health Assistants.

In response to its aging population and declining labor force, Japan is implementing robots in nursing homes, workplaces, and schools.

For instance, in March 2022, China-based Ping An Group introduced a home-based elderly care service as part of its insurance + service product ecosystem. This solution features a unique concierge service, 10 service scenarios, and a unified supervisory system for consumers.
