THE ACTIVAGE VIRTUAL EXPERIENCE DAY

TOOK PLACE ON 21st OCTOBER 2020

The main objective of performing this event was to show the final results of the project to the ACTIVAGE community despite the sanitary crisis. The session was initially programmed through a presential event on May 2020 in an iconic place of the Madrid city centre. Considering the worldwide crisis, we worked hard for adapting this first approach to a dynamic and immersive digital experience with virtual and augmented reality technology.

The ACTIVAGE VIRTUAL EXPERIENCE was celebrated on the 21st October 2021. This 5-hour event featured more than 30 participants from 7 different countries and was streamed through Zoom and YouTube for over 300 attendees.

The ACTIVAGE big day was distributed in the following four main tracks including external speakers:

  • The ACTIVAGE Experience of 8.000 senior people and caregivers, that are already enjoying active and healthy aging services attending their health and social needs.
  • The ACTIVAGE Values and results achieved in 12 European cities and regions after three yearlong piloting active ageing solutions and services.
  • The ACTIVAGE technology impact on the Internet of Things for health and social care that maximize security, privacy and ethical compliance.
  • The Kick-Off of ACTIVAGE.ORG organization that will scale up the ACTIVAGE Ecosystem throughout new European regions in the next 5 years

The consortium is very proud of this virtual session and the valuable content generated that constitutes the audio-visual portfolio and heritage of ACTIVAGE project.
