Projects
Together we produce health
The primary goal of the HealthFactory is to facilitate innovation projects. We currently support around twenty projects. We collaborate in local, national and European consortia. Together we may work on a new product or service, on the healthcare professional of the future or on the design of an entirely new healthcare system.
Some projects are in the planning phase, others have already started. We often bid for funds successfully, but sometimes an idea does not get off the ground. Do you have an initiative, idea or wish for a new project, then we would love to hear from you. You can get an overview of our innovation projects below.
The U-TOPIA project is taking steps towards experiencing more personal power and strength. In the project, through co-creation and market exploration, concepts for assistive technology are designed that meet the needs of elderly people with HIV to manage and improve their quality of life.
In the European project Gift2Gift we bring 'needy elderly' together with 'helping elderly' towards the development of an innovative, ICT-driven gift card system. The goal is a financially sound collaboration platform that supports and activates the elderly.
