We are delighted to announce that, for the first time, the 2019 EIP on AHA Conference of Partners will be jointly organised with the AAL Forum on the 23-25 September 2019 in Aarhus, Denmark. As part of their joint mission to support ageing and care in digital transformation, the two organisations are teaming up to bring together all the doers and shapers on active and healthy ageing from Europe and beyond.

The Danish city of Aarhus will host the event, which includes an action-packed agenda, with 32 parallel sessions, three plenaries, internationally renowned keynote speakers, and an exciting exhibition area where the latest designs and technology for the Silver Economy will be showcased.

On the 25th ECHAlliance together with FUNKA and TicBioMed will present the horizontal initiative Innovation to Market (I2M) during a dedicated session at 14:00-15:30.

The aim of the I2M is to support the transformation of health and care in the Digital Single Market, thereby reinforcing the links between the development of solutions by companies, start-ups, and researchers – the supply side – and the expectations and needs of care providers, policy-makers, insurers and other potential buyers of these products and services – the demand side.

The I2M will provide concrete opportunities for matchmaking, networking and increasing the adoption rateby organising a series of activities and services that involve the two sides of the market. Such actions have been detailed in the Innovation to Market Plan (summary published last 4th June 2019) and will be formally launched in Aarhus.

The CoP2019 is a great opportunity to network, make plans, and join a wide-ranging audience of leading European thinkers, regulators, policymakers, regional actors and associations.

Participants from both the AAL and EIP on AHA communities will have the occasion to meet up with their peers in a real-life setting. Let’s use the occasion to develop synergies between these two exciting European programmes.

Make sure to put 23-25 September 2019 in your diaries and we’ll see you on those dates at the event!
