Senior living tech, innovation, and solutions

Wednesday, June 3, 2026
8:30 AM - 2:00 PM (EDT)

Technology.  It’s not just a hot topic; it is the reality of our world.  From EMRs and electronic call systems to lighting systems, thermostats, pill dispensers, and beyond, today’s technology enables senior living providers to monitor and provide care for residents with cutting-edge tools.   

Tech in long-term care is rapidly evolving.  Continuously enhancing operational efficiencies, addressing labor issues, and empowering residents to maximize their quality of life through safety, communication, socialization, health, and wellness.  Technology is making us better, but how do we manage it all?

Join us for the annual GSLA Tech Summit with AGE TECH CONNECT and discover new technologies to advance your community, discuss new technology developments to expect in the not-too-distant future, and leave with resources to help you know how to integrate it all through data-driven decision making. 

Senior living community administrators, owners, and operators are invited to join GSLA as we spotlight six technologically innovative solutions to our industry’s top-of-mind issues.
