Silver Tree Labs is on a mission to empower the world’s aging population. We recognize that aging is a personal experience, yet the decision to age independently so often includes the perspective of family. That is why we are leveraging advanced technology to design stylish solutions that are built for safety and deeply rooted in human connection, across generations.

We are developing the next generation of wearable technology that supports aging adults in extending their independence while providing peace of mind to family and friends. Our sleek design utilizes the latest personal safety technologies and connectivity to promote vitality and independence while keeping loved ones close, no matter how far.

Aging is a gift that should be celebrated. It’s time to age out loud.
