Following the success of the first edition held in 2022, SPC, the Spanish technology company, launches the “II Edition of Senior Week” from October 1 to 8. This initiative coincides with the International Day of Older Persons and promotes the digitalization of seenagers through various activities and educational content.
Seenagers are older adults who challenge traditional age-related stereotypes and are redefining what it means to age in society.
The company, committed to bringing technology closer to seniors, has partnered with the Friends of the Elderly Foundation so that every user who makes a donation during this week to the association through the website www.spc.es (between 5 and 20 euros) will receive a device from the brand, always of greater value than the amount donated.
After the success achieved in the first edition in 2022, SPC, the Spanish consumer technology brand, has launched its “II Edition of Senior Week”, which will be held from October 1 to 8. This initiative coincides with the International Day of Older Persons (October 1) and promotes the digitalization of this group.
The technology company dedicates this edition to seenagers, a fusion of senior (older adult) and teenager, a term that originated in the United States during the 1990s and is now reaching Europe to describe older adults who challenge traditional age-related stereotypes. For them, SPC has created an exclusive digital space where it will share tips and technology recommendations, as well as giveaways and insights from various experts in technology and aging. The brand’s official communication channels, website, blog, and social media will be used to share quality content, created by industry professionals, to help better understand this world. In this regard, the Spanish company aims to reduce the digital divide through the technological devices it designs with features especially conceived for the older audience, a segment the company has always been committed to.
To reinforce this commitment, the brand has partnered with the Friends of the Elderly Foundation to support the valuable initiatives the foundation carries out for the benefit of senior users. During the II Edition of Senior Week, the technology company calls on society’s solidarity and invites users to make donations to this association through its website www.spc.es. As a token of gratitude, the brand will send one of its devices aimed at senior users to those who make donations. Donations can be 5, 10, 15, or 20 euros, and for each donation, the user will receive free of charge a radio ICY MAX, an ultrasonic aroma diffuser SPC NERTA, a smart scale SPC ATENEA FIT 2, or a wireless charging alarm clock for mobile phones SPC FRODI QI, respectively. SPC has developed a microsite with all the information and steps to follow so that anyone interested can collaborate with this initiative.
