About Us
We're a provider of innovative end-to-end solutions supporting the needs in social and active healthy aging.
We're a group of top-ranked specialists - with subject matter expertise in healthy aging - providing programme management, business consulting and development (IT, AI, EDGE) services to deliver end-to-end solutions.
Solutions that make a difference by adding value to a healthy society instead of tackling a single problem.
Goal. Mission. Vision
Our goal is to make an impact by 'crafting' solutions that deliver on:
- the health goal of 5 additional years of Healthy Life Expectancy [HLE+5]
- minimizing health inequities.
-
Our innovations are based on 'blending' ingenious technologies into a single end-user centric, 'virtual' solution.
Conceived from the perspective of a participant/citizen driven society.
-
In The Netherlands the government defined measures to achieving these goals are listed in the Dutch National Prevention Agreement and the Integrated Care Agreement [IZA]. However, these measures in themselves are not enough to achieve the HLE+5 goal and action is needed as these needs to be converted into policies and solutions which promoting healthy lifestyles.

In order for our population to be healthy it’s important to establish long-term behavioral change.
We need to convince people in old age, and even the 50+ age group, to improve their wellbeing,
i.e. increase their resilience which delays the onset of frailty
and reduces the pace of frailty decline at very old age.
It's our belief that this is best achieved by developing solutions, from a wider context.
Instead of solving the problem of drinking enough water, we tackle the dehydration problem from a broader perspective to motivate older aged persons to move well, drink well and eat well. We achieve this by 'embedding' technologies in the everyday lives of our citizens. It has already been demonstrated, that older adults can be encouraged
to engage in meaningful physical activities (walking as well as to be more active at home),
'appropriate' drinking and eating
and socializing by meeting other people.
Our Ambition
It is our ambition to develop solutions which evolve from tackling a single care need, like tackling dehydration, malnutrition or inactivity, to an orchestrated solutions suite. There's a definite need for innovations, integrated, into 'single' virtual community care solution to support end-users [older adults], carers and other professionals active in prevention, social care, healthcare and welfare.
A community care solution which also supports family, friends and 'other 'helpers' to support social and active healthy aging.
