The current shift in demographics - aging and shrinking populations - in many countries around the world presents a major challenge to companies and societies alike. One particularly essential implication is the emergence and constant growth of the so-called "silver market," the market segment more or less broadly defined as those people aged 55 and older. Increasing in number and share of the total population while at the same time being relatively well-off, this market segment can be seen as very attractive and promising, although still very underdeveloped in terms of product and service offerings. This book offers a thorough and up-to-date analysis of the challenges and opportunities in leveraging innovation, technology, product development and marketing for elder consumers and employees. Key lessons are drawn from the Japanese lead market as well as other select countries.

Silver Formation explores the complete lifecycle of silver, from its geological origins deep within the Earth to its refining and widespread use in industries and investment. This book argues that understanding the entire journey of silver is vital for informed decisions in finance, resource management, and technology. Silver's frequent association with lead and copper deposits is examined, along with the shift from historical mining methods to modern extraction technologies like leaching and smelting. The book progresses from the geological processes that create silver ore, through various extraction techniques, to the refining processes that yield pure silver. It highlights silver's role as a store of value throughout history and its increasing importance in electronics and renewable energy, particularly solar panels. Silver Formation takes a holistic approach by examining silver's formation, extraction, and refining within an economic and environmental context, making it valuable for anyone interested in earth sciences, finance, and the history of precious metals.
