The challenge
Two very different questions will be asked of the start-up scene in Europe this year:
- The research center Virtual Vehicle is looking for an innovative application that collects, evaluates and/or communicates health-related data about vehicle occupants.
- The Union "smart ageing“ is looking for applications that can be used in the home. Older people should be able to live independently and safely in their own four walls for as long as possible.
Applications can now be submitted online. The closing date for entries is February 24th, the winners will be chosen on March 30th at the Health Tech Hub Styria Pitch & Partner in Graz. The winning teams can look forward to attractive cooperation offers, access to the region's forward-looking networks and personal contacts with potential business partners.
