Inspiring Our Shared World

By Company, Events, Guest Posts
One of the highlights of our partnership with the International Council on Active Aging (ICAA) is being invited to participate in the annual Think Tank. This incredible forum brings together industry leaders committed to changing the world of active aging and improving the industry. The most recent event was focused on addressing the staffing crisis in senior living. What makes this forum so special is that we’re all working together to go beyond great insights and ideas. Participants are chosen because they have the industry knowledge to create a strategic path forward, AND the ability and resources to implement those solutions. At SportsArt, we’ve always been focused on making fitness available to everyone at every age and ability level. This aligns us perfectly with ICAA and makes our partnership very exciting. Make sure you check out the Inspiring Our Shared World video to learn more about ICAA, our partnership, and the vision that came from the last Think Tank. And download the summary to see the implementable strategies that can be put into practice right now. The 17th Annual ICAA Forum Think Tank is in Washington, DC, this June. SportsArt is looking forward to joining the conversation around "Funding the new wellness model in senior living."
