Aging Out Loud!
Mapping the Futures of How We Live
This Fall 2025, students in the MGMT 4002 Product Management course at Humber Polytechnic take on the role of product managers to design and launch a podcast series under the theme Aging Out Loud. Through original episodes, student teams explore future-ready solutions in sustainable caregiving, housing, health, technology, finance, and social connection, in partnership with our industry collaborator, Collaborative Aging; a Canadian organization focused on reimagining aging through inclusive, intergenerational, and community-centered approaches.
