Ask This, Not That: Demystifying Tech Investments
Session Type: Innovation Lab
Date and Time:Tuesday, March 31, 2026 | 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
Technology is no longer optional—it’s the essential infrastructure of senior housing and care. This session explores how leaders can move beyond point solutions to shape a connected technology ecosystem that supports efficiency, better outcomes, and a stronger organizational culture.
Attendees will hear panelists share the frameworks, questions, and “mental checklists” they use to cut through a crowded vendor landscape and assess what truly fits their organizations. Through operator and capital perspectives, the discussion will illuminate how to think about ROI, data, and integrated tools in ways that create measurable value for owners, investors, and internal teams—and help leaders feel more confident in making technology decisions.
Featuring insights from Caroline Pearson of the Peterson Health Technology Institute, plus real-world perspectives from Kari Olson of Front Porch and Greg Furst of Omega Healthcare Investors. Moderated by Sarah Thomas of AgeTech Capital and MezTal.
