Most of the digital solutions aim "ageing in place" by allowing old people and their families to manage disease and stay home and independent as far as possible.

Some technologies and apps in the fields of therapy adherence in dementia, caregivers of people with dementia support; frailty screening and referral and how reuse the biomedical, and finally how to evaluate health multi-national pilots will be addressed.
