Malaysia is ageing faster than almost any other country in Asia, yet the infrastructure to support this demographic shift barely exists. Addressing this massive gap is Seniora, a fully bootstrapped, seven-figure integrated elder care operation. 



Spanning across centres in Taiping, Penang, and Johor Bahru, the business offers a comprehensive suite of services including elder day care, home nursing, physiotherapy, and active ageing programmes. Crucially, every member of their care team is certified in Montessori dementia care, ensuring a highly specialised approach to cognitive wellness.



Having recently opened two new centres, secured a Malaysian distributorship for cutting-edge cognitive wellness technology, and launched a Senior Learning Community, the business is scaling aggressively. 



Founder Chew Siew Mei joins us to discuss the realities of building an elder care operation in a market that does not yet fully believe it needs one. We unpack the complexities of running day care centres, the uphill battle to change how local families think about ageing, and what it genuinely takes to scale trust in such a sensitive industry.
