DR. DAVID FOOT, Ph.D.
World-Renowned Demographics Expert

David K. Foot, Professor of Economics at the University of Toronto, is the author of the best-selling books Boom, Bust & Echo: How to Profit from the Coming Demographic Shift and Boom, Bust & Echo: Profiting from the Demographic Shift in the 21st Century, the updated paperback. These books are based on his research on the economic impact of demographic change, and the resulting implications for industry sectors and both private and public policy. His books have sold over 300,000 copies in Canada and were on the Canadian best-seller lists for over three years.

David Foot is an outspoken and controversial demographics expert who can bring to life demographic statistics and make the aging of society relevant to any specific interest group. He explores how changing demographics, especially the aging of the massive Boomer generation and the coming into the marketplace of their children, the Echo generation, will redefine society’s needs.

Change can’t be avoided, but it can be prepared for and managed. With an understanding of demographics, a business, an individual or a government has a strong foundation upon which to build.
