This Life Expectancy Infographic Outlines the Keys to Living Longer

— December 8, 2012 — Life-Stages
This life expectancy infographic poses the question, "why do we want to live so long?"

No one really has the answer to this, but it's safe to assume the basis of it is instinctual. We're living, breathing, thinking beings and are intrinsically hardwired to try to stay that way, thus we try to live as long as we can.

The maximum known human lifespan is 126 years old. However, that only occurs in extreme cases. The country with the highest average lifespan is Monaco, where people typically live to almost 90 (89.73). Japan has a life expectancy of 82.25 years and the United States is 49th in the world with a life expectancy of 78.37.

This life expectancy infographic also touches on the factors that affect life expectancy. It says that good genes do affect how long you live, however not as much as lifestyle and chance.
Trend Themes
1. Increasing Life Expectancy - Disruptive innovation opportunities can be found in developing technologies and services that contribute to increasing life expectancy, such as personalized medicine and anti-aging treatments.
2. Health and Wellness - Opportunities for disruptive innovation exist in the health and wellness industry, including the development of innovative healthcare products, services, and technologies that promote longevity and well-being.
3. Data Visualization - The trend of using infographics and data visualization to communicate complex information opens up opportunities for disruptive innovation in creating interactive and engaging platforms for sharing life expectancy data.
Industry Implications
1. Healthcare - The healthcare industry can explore disruptive innovation by focusing on preventive and personalized medicine, as well as developing technologies that improve life expectancy and quality of life.
2. Pharmaceuticals - Pharmaceutical companies have the potential to drive disruptive innovation through the development of breakthrough therapies and medications that target age-related diseases and extend healthy lifespan.
3. Technology - The technology industry can play a significant role in disruptive innovation by creating advanced wearable devices, digital health solutions, and AI-powered tools for personalized health tracking and behavior modification.
