In “Longevity Industry 1.0 - Defining the Biggest and Most Complex Industry in Human History”, we distilled the complex assembly of deep market intelligence and industry knowledge that Deep Knowledge Group has developed over the past 5 years into a full-scope understanding of the global Longevity Industry, showing the public exactly how Deep Knowledge Group managed to define the overwhelmingly complex and multidimensional Longevity Industry for the first time, and how they created tangible framework for its systematization and forecasting. That book devoted 1 of its 4 sections to the topic of Longevity Policy and Governance, and the future rise of Longevity Politics.
Now, in 2021, that time has come, as governments begin to prioritize the concept of Longevity from both a population health and an industrialization standpoint, and developments are accelerating to such an extent that an entire book is now necessitated to gain an actionable, deep and comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities at play on the new frontier of Longevity Governance. In ‘Longevity Politics: Longevity Technocracy, Modern Approaches to Policy, Governance & National Industrial Strategies, and Longevity as the New Political Priority of the 21st Century’, Dmitry Kaminskiy charts the rise of progressive Longevity MegaHubs and Technocracies, the concept of the Longevity Valley and its evolution toward the Longevity State, global benchmarking of national and local Longevity Industrial Strategies, international benchmarking of National Healthy Longevity, Longevity Ethics (how potential negative societal outcomes resulting from Longevity can be proactively optimized to ensure maximized socioeconomic benefit), and how Longevity will become central, essential and fundamental to developed nations’ political agendas by 2030.

Longevity Politics - Foreword by Dmitry Kaminskiy
In our 2020 book, ‘Longevity Industry 1.0: Defining the Biggest and Most Complex Industry in Human History’, we distilled the complex assembly of deep market intelligence and industry knowledge that Deep Knowledge Group and its Longevity-focused subsidiaries (including Longevity.Capital and Aging Analytics Agency) have developed over the past 7 years into a full-scope understanding of the global Longevity Industry.
One of the four sections of that book was dedicated to the topic of Longevity Policy and Governance, charting the rise of Longevity as a topic of increasingly prominent recognition and prioritization among progressive governments, and the emergence in the past several years of Longevity Politics - a state in which the concept of optimized National Healthy Longevity becomes an actual political talking point and tangible goal among politicians and between national and municipal governments. In 2021, we have reached the point at which the realm of Longevity Politics is emerging, and developments have accelerated to such an extent that we now feel compelled to dedicate a full book to this topic, in order to provide a comprehensive and actionable overview of the present state and near future of Longevity Politics. It is with this agenda in mind that I have written ‘Longevity Politics: Longevity Technocracy, Modern Approaches to Policy, Governance & National Industrial Strategies, and Longevity as the New Political Priority of the 21st Century’.
In the next few years, several technologically advanced, small, smart states will emerge as global competitors in the development of unified Longevity Industry ecosystems. Some will focus on specific sectors, while others will seek to create so called Longevity States: fully integrated hubs encompassing the entire scope of the industry (including biomedicine, tech, and finance). Five years from now we can expect to see a “new normal” of small, technocratic nations selectively promoting both personal and institutional citizenship to individuals, companies, and investors committed to advancing Longevity-related technologies in exchange for access to some of the world’s most sophisticated and progressive healthcare, life insurance, MedTech, HealthTech, Longevity FinTech, AgeTech, and WealthTech ecosystems. These products and services will enable the simultaneous maintenance of healthspan and wealthspan , and ensure the highest possible quality of life, social activity, mental wellness, and overall functionality.
As increasing numbers of governments are beginning to formulate and execute national industrial strategies to facilitate the synergetic development of four main sectors and driving forces of Longevity Industrialization (Advanced Biomedicine, AgeTech, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and the Longevity Financial Industry), with the goal of transforming the challenge of aging population into the opportunity of Healthy Longevity, it is clear that the age of Longevity Politics has already begun. The political, economic, and industrial capital that governments control is larger than any other industry stakeholder, and the stakes are proportionately higher, given that they are tasked with maintaining and optimizing the health and wealth of their nations. It is now indisputable that the Longevity Industry has reached a critical inflection point where politics becomes the most important driver of progress in the continued positive trajectory of Longevity Industrialization, and the delivery of prolonged and optimized Health, Wealth and Practical Human Longevity to the citizens of the world.

PART IV. Global Longevity Politics: Challenges and
Opportunities of Longevity Politics in Europe, Asia, North
America, MENA and Latin America
-
While commonalities and universalities within Longevity Governance exist, the majority of outcomes necessitate adapting Longevity Strategy formulation and execution to the specifics of different regions, whether they are nations or municipalities.
-
Different territories have distinct Longevity-related strengths, weaknesses, challenges and opportunities, tuned to their own economic, demographic and technological circumstances.
-
For this reason, a deeper dive into the specific present state and future of Longevity Governance in Europe, Asa, North America, MENA and Latin America is warranted - which is the major aim of PART IV of this book.

PART VI. The Bright Future of Next Generation Politics as
Driving Force of 5th Industrial Revolution
-
Longevity represents a fundamentally new type of political asset class at the heart of national economies most pressing challenges and opportunities, and will determine the future socioeconomic health and wealth of nations.
-
It also constitutes one of the main drivers in an ongoing paradigm shift that I call the 5th Industrial Revolution..
-
Klaus Schwab defined the 4th Industrial Revolution, which is the present (2020). Kurzweil and others defined Singularity, which is expected to occur by 2045.
-
In between these two paradigms will be the 5th Industrial Revolution (5th IR), which will emerge as a transition point between 2030-3035 - or sooner, if the right approaches are applied.
-
There are, however, many challenges to manifesting the best socioeconomic and geopolitical potentials of the 5th IR and neutralizing negative consequences. For that, advanced frameworks are required.
-
Defining the exact parameters of this period, and formulating the frameworks necessary to accelerate its emergence, and to neutralize the various technological, existential, socioeconomic and geopolitical threats and risks that it presents, and to optimize the practical delivery of its many benefits to humanity is the mission of my forthcoming book, of which this chapter serves as a preview.
