SmartCare aims to define a common set of standard functional specifications for an open ICT platform enabling the delivery of integrated care to older European citizens. A total of 23 regions and their key stakeholders will define a comprehensive set of integration building blocks around the challenges of data-sharing, coordination and communication. Ten regions will then pilot integrated health & social services to combat a range of threats to independent living commonly faced by older people while the other will prepare for early adoption. In a rigorous evaluation approach, the pilot will produce and document much needed evidence on the impact of integrated care, developing a common framework suitable for other regions in Europe. Guidelines and specifications for procuring, organizing and implementing the service building blocks will be produced. The organizational and legal ramifications of integrated care will be analyzed to support long term sustainability and up-scaling of the services.
The SILVERSUDOE project stems from the fact that companies from the south-west part of Europe, for not knowing consumer behaviours are hardly aware of the economic opportunities that certain markets may offer. In addition, SMES and micro-enterprises of this area lack R&D solutions needed to develop their offering of products or services. Nor do they have internal resources and tools required to adapt their development strategies to new market obstacles.
In this regard, the SILVERSUDOE project aims to increase the competitiveness of the companies in West European, drawing upon the innovation resources of the area and above all by integrating the R&D advances to its offering.
During the implementation of the project, which has begun in September 2013, a number of activities will be carried out with the goal of making it known and to involve companies interested in the actions to be implemented.
