Business or home care organisation? Register on the ACE community platform.

The ACE Community Platform supports crossborder matchmaking between healthcare organizations and businesses. Several pilot projects will start up in 2025. Increase your visibility, get a chance to set up a pilot project, expand your network and get to know international home care solutions from Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and France.  

One in five families in the EU needs professional home care. The current care system cannot keep up with the rising demand, partly due to a lack of qualified staff. ACE examines how countries such as Sweden, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, France and Belgium are using innovation to address this challenge. Technology such as wearables, e-health and assistive devices play a role, as do new processes in home care. To encourage collaboration, ACE developed the ACE Community Platform. The platform connects healthcare organizations and companies from the six countries. This platform promotes innovation exchange and provides opportunities for pilot projects, with which solutions can be tested in different countries.

Why participate in the ACE Community Platform? 

• Visibility and reach: Showcase your breakthrough products and services to a European audience and increase your international visibility within the ACE community. 
• Pilot projects: Companies can seize the unique opportunity to test their innovative products (TRL 7-8 or higher) or services in realistic testing environments (pilot sites) supported by the ACE project. Healthcare organisations can apply to become pilot sites for testing and implementing new innovations with a TRL rating of 7 or higher, which are not yet available in their region. By doing so, they contribute to the advancement of healthcare practices. 
• Access to innovations: Discover advanced solutions and services from the North Sea region tailored to the changing needs of healthcare organisations and end-users. 
• Networking: Make valuable contacts with like-minded companies, potential cooperation partners and healthcare institutions looking for innovative home care solutions.
