Celebrating the Innovation of Connected Caring Things

✨ SAVE THE DATE✨

Join the Internet of Caring Things® (IoCT™) team for our Celebration of Innovation in the North East.

Stay tuned for more details about the guest speakers.

We also invite 10 of our IoCT™ supported companies to pitch and exhibit their products to attendees. Some are looking for investment others are looking for advice and all are looking for those essential connections needed to bring their products or services to commercialisation.

If you are offering support and services in these areas please do join us and help us support IoCT™ companies on their journey.

Each of our 10 companies will be in the running for one of our three awards

• Healthy Longevity (Chosen By Judges Panel)
• Healthy Planet (Chosen By Judges Panel)
• Voices’ Choice (Chosen by Event Attendees)

The 10 presenting companies and the Judges Panel will be announced in the coming weeks

The Internet of Caring Things® (IoCT™) is a game changing, global market attracting companies from across all sectors that are looking to gain commercial advantage in the Longevity Sector.

By challenging the sterotype of 'Ageing' and ‘care’ and focusing on what people care about as well as the people we care about, we continue to support the development of new or redesigned products and services that could have a major, positive impact on our health and well-being and those around us, as we age through life.

About the Internet of Caring Things® programme

The Internet of Caring Things® is a network of connected devices and services with a clear mission: to actively care for people – their physical and mental well-being – and what really matters to them – such as leisure, safety and security, pets, planet, sustainability and connecting with family and friends.

A £5.6 million pound project running through to 2027, the Internet of Caring Things® programme is delivered by U.K. National Innovation Centre Ageing (NICA), VOICE® and Centre of Process Innovation (CPI) to support economic growth and improve the health and wellbeing of those living and working in the North East. Together we are developing the first network of connected objects and cognitive systems with a clear mission: to actively care for people and what matters to them.

This project is part-funded by the North East Combined Authority and Newcastle University, in partnership with Centre of Process Innovation (CPI).

The North East Combined Authority is a partnership of seven local authorities: County Durham, Gateshead, Newcastle, Northumberland, North Tynside, South Tyneside and Sunderland. Find out more at: https://www.northeast-ca.gov.uk/
