The Smart & Healthy Ageing through People Engaging in Supportive Systems (SHAPES) Innovation Action intends to build, pilot and deploy a large-scale, EU-standardised open platform. The integration of a broad range of technological, organisational, clinical, educational and societal solutions seeks to facilitate long-term healthy and active ageing and the maintenance of a high-quality standard of life. Mediated by technology, in-home and local community environments interact with health and care (H&C) networks contributing to the reduction of H&C costs, hospitalisations and institutional care.
Our solutions are focused on keeping those in the later years of their lives in their communities and homes.
Our researchers and subject matter experts are focused on exploring cutting-edge methods and technology to achieve our core mission.
SHAPES works across multiple industries and institutions. Made up of 36 partners across 14 countries, we’ve ensured diversity of input throughout each phase of our projects.
