Integrating IT technology into the senior citizen job sector contributes to enhancing productivity and increasing income.
Silver Lab (formerly known as Senior Job Research Institute, represented by Chanil Kim) announced on the 24th that it has acquired the senior citizen subway quick solution, Dudreum Quick, through a business agreement with the Korea Senior Club Association (President Beomgi Jo).
Silver Lab is a startup team comprised of KAIST alumni, while Dudreum Quick is a social venture founded by Seoul National University students. Through the acquisition of Dudreum Quick, Silver Lab has gained access to the expertise accumulated through Dudreum Quick's handling of approximately 9,000 subway quick delivery orders.
Silver Lab plans to enhance the efficiency of Dudreum Quick's expertise by incorporating AI and machine learning, among other IT technologies. For instance, they aim to improve the following aspects: assigning senior delivery personnel closest to the customer's requested location, optimizing routes for bundled deliveries from multiple orders, and enhancing route optimization for senior delivery personnel using real-time subway operation information for travel via subway and on foot.
To date, 175 senior delivery personnel have partnered with Silver Lab, and the company has collaborated with 530 businesses. Through B2B sales targeting small and medium-sized enterprises, they plan to expand their client base to 700 businesses by the end of this year. Furthermore, in collaboration with the Korea Senior Club Association, they intend to expand beyond Seoul by forming partnerships with senior clubs in the metropolitan area and major cities nationwide. They also plan to collaborate with various organizations to create high-quality job opportunities for senior citizens.
About Silver Lab
Silver Lab is a social venture with a vision to transform low-productivity tasks into job opportunities for senior citizens through the application of IT technology and organizational innovation. By doing so, they aim to address the issue of the 43% elderly poverty rate, the highest among OECD countries, in a super-aged society with over 10 million people aged 65 and older, by creating jobs for senior citizens. They also seek to ensure that the undervalued labor of senior citizens receives proper recognition. Ultimately, this will contribute to improving overall societal productivity by allowing professionals to focus on productive work. Silver Lab is a team of seven members, including KAIST alumni, who have each built expertise in their respective fields and share a common belief in the vision of Silver Lab. Founded on January 15, 2024, it has acquired and is rebuilding the senior citizen subway delivery solution, Dudreum Quick, developed by the Seoul National University social venture club, Enactus.
