“The SilverEco Awards recognize outstanding initiatives that contribute to ageing well. It’s a unique human experience. This year has been exceptional in many respects : we would like to thank all the participants, nominees, winners and “special mentions”, not forgetting all of our partners, the members of the Expert Jury and, of course, the artists from the Nice la Joïa workshop of France Alzheimer 06, who once again created the superb trophies that were presented to each winner.
The presentation of the French Awards at the Palais des Festivals of Cannes was accompanied by a new edition of the “SilverEco & Ageing Well International Awards” : 5 innovative projects by international players were rewarded. The demographic transition is global and underway, and the Palais des Festivals of Cannes is now the essential meeting place for all international players in the ageing well sector. We look forward to seeing them on October 20 and 21, 2025″
