European experts in Silver Economy and R&D
At Ideable, as the developer of Kwido, we also have experts who carry out ad-hoc projects related to R&D and the Silver Economy.
One of the best ways to create custom developments is through “co-creation” with our clients.
We have experience in:
- Profiling of end users and caregivers.
- Participation in the generation of informed consent and ethical committees.
- Development of inclusion/exclusion criteria.
- Data collection from users, caregivers and professionals to help define the ideal solution.
- Defining operating protocols for call-centres and user assistance centres.
- Analysis of the state-of-the-art technology to be used.
- Pre-validation and piloting of the solution.
Everything is done following an Agile methodology, in order to quickly validate the developments and iterate, thus achieving greater speed in the implementation of new products and services.
We also carry out tailor-made developments for the sector throughout Europe; either through integrations with Kwido, or through turnkey projects for the Silver Economy sector.
Furthermore, we participate in several consortia in the AAL programme, focused on promoting new technologies to improve elderly care.
We have participated in and coordinated numerous technological projects for the elderly, on a European level:
- ZOCAALO: A project to define development guidelines for accessible apps (Find out about Zocaalo)
- PETAL: An intelligent platform that monitors the behaviour of users in their homes, and remotely controls their lighting systems. Targeted at patients with early symptoms of dementia or Alzheimer’s (Discover PETAL)
- IOANNA: A communication system for the elderly who have businesses and services adapted to their local environment (IOANNA Project)
- DAPAS: This connects our Kwido system with other European platforms, to improve the quality of life at home for the elderly (More on DAPAS)
- FRAAGILE: Project coordination for the detection and prevention of physical and mental fragility (Find out about FRAAGILE)
