Globally, hearing loss is an understated concern, impacting an astounding 1.6 billion people. Of these, approximately 430 million grapple with grave hearing issues. The World Health Organization anticipates these figures to soar to 2.5 billion by 2050, with a staggering 700 million expected to face debilitating hearing challenges. Alarmingly, despite the means for intervention, a scant 20% of those affected have access to vital hearing aids. This void in care manifests in societal ramifications, escalating to feelings of isolation, mental health challenges, cognitive setbacks, and hindered career opportunities.
Signia stands steadfast in its mission to confront these challenges. By equipping people with all ages with the means to hear, Signia not only addresses a pressing concern but also charts a course against the wider repercussions of hearing loss on a societal and personal front.
