The TechnolAGE project has just kicked off! It is a study commissioned by the European Commission, DG Communications Networks, Content and Technology, that is seeking to identify and illustrate a set of sustainable business or financing models related to existing innovative solutions based on Information & Communication Technologies (ICT) that have a high proven relevance for the ageing population. In other words, these solutions should result in an improvement in the quality of life of elderly people and their carers, increase the efficiency of care and have market potential. Furthermore, the study will examine the potential and the conditions for replication of these models in other countries or regions across Europe.
One of the key features of this project is its strong element of stakeholder collaboration and engagement. We will disseminate and collect feedback from stakeholders at several stages of the project in order to gather further information and comments.
Case selection is currently underway, and the first stakeholder engagement event, scheduled for 7 March 2012, is being organized: this will consist in a focus group with ICT for Ageing Well stakeholders, during which the discussion will be focused on getting input and validation on both the 20 case studies selected and the methodology proposed to analyze them.
Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting new project!
