People with disability and older people represent a large proportion of the Australian population. In 2009, four million people (almost 20 per cent of the population) reported having a disability. In 2011, more than three million Australians were aged 65 or over. The opportunities for people with disability and older people, as well as all parties involved in developing, manufacturing and providing these technologies and services are significant.
