A Smart Care Distributed Environment

4 Aug 2008

The competition has been called the Smart Care Distributed Environment to emphasis the need to look at communications technologies within the context of a large population of users with multiple devices, and within a personalised health and care system.

• Develop technology-based innovative solutions to address long term conditions
  
• Stimulate and/or accelerate industry investment in innovation
  
• Show clear pathways to exploitation
  
• Engage with users and beneficiaries of the project outputs
  
• Adopt a clear multidisciplinary approach
