Any of you fellow old guys successfully get hired by a young company?

I've been self employed for all but 2 of the last 20 years. Sort of tired of what I've been doing. I've been thinking about what might be next for a while. LinkedIn suggested a job that I wasn't interested in, but that lead to me finding a job at the same company that did sound interesting.

They hold tours once a month. Did that before applying. While at their location it struck me that everyone there looked to be around 25 years old.

Had a phone interview last week. That went well enough and I'll have another on Monday. If that goes well, I'll have an in-person interview. I have lots of experience in the most important part of the job, but I'm trying to figure how to make my 51 year old self seem relevant to a bunch of 20 somethings.
