About INNOVAge

INNOVAge is an INTERREG project in which fifteen partners from fourteen countries work together on issues related to Europe’s ageing population. The aim of the project is to increase the effectiveness of regional development policies in the field of independent living and smart home technology.

Analyzing technology transfer

As knowledge partner in the project, TNO explored the implementation of telecare technology in three regions in the Netherlands. Aim of the research was to introduce a tool for the mapping of telecare technology transfer in an innovation system as a whole and assess its usability by mapping drivers and barriers as experienced in the transfer of a well-known telecare technology.
