  • This is a fantastic idea! It's great to see such innovative thinking and a focus on solving real-world problems. The platform itself is a brilliant space for students to share and grow their ideas. Keep up the amazing work!
  • This is a really useful idea, especially for senior citizens. Maybe you can also think about adding a 24/7 helpline or simple video guides so they can get quick help even without waiting for in-person support.
  • What a fantastic and heartfelt business idea! Bridging the digital divide for senior citizens is a critical need. Your focus on patience and personalized support addresses a key challenge, making this both a viable and truly meaningful venture.
  • This is a thoughtful and much-needed idea. Personalized tech support for senior citizens can make a real difference in their daily lives. Have you considered partnering with community centers or retirement homes to reach them more effectively? Also curious—how will you manage in-home vs. remote support efficiently?
  • This is a heartwarming idea that bridges the digital gap for seniors. Partnerships with local NGOs, senior clubs, or community centers could make adoption easier and build trust faster.
  • This is such a thoughtful and impactful idea! Technology moves so fast, and senior citizens often get left behind. I really like how your service combines setup, training, and even safety features—it feels complete and genuinely useful.
  • This senior tech support is an intelligent and compassionate response to an expanding digital divide. It enables older people to remain safe, connected, and confident with technology. A business that is purposeful yet practical just what our era requires.
  • A very meaningful and practical idea. Providing patient, personalized tech support for senior citizens not only addresses a growing need but also promotes inclusivity and digital confidence. It has the potential to create both social impact and a sustainable business model
  • ConnectAge is a really thoughtful idea that tackles a real gap seniors face with technology, and the wide range of services makes it both practical and impactful. I like how it combines device setup, training, and safety support—it feels very inclusive. At the same time, I wonder if starting with such a broad scope might be overwhelming; maybe narrowing down to the most urgent needs first would make it easier to build trust and scale later. Do you think seniors would feel comfortable adopting this quickly, or would partnerships with communities help bridge that gap?
  • This idea feels both meaningful and practical. Seniors often struggle with new technology, and having patient, personalized support could make their lives easier and safer. Beyond just solving technical issues, it creates confidence and independence for them—while also opening doors to a thoughtful, purpose-driven business opportunity.
