SmartWork @ AAL forum 23 – 25 September 2019

SmartWork is excited to be heading to the AAL Forum on the 23-25 September 2019 in Aarhus, Denmark. The overall topic for this year is “Smarter practical implementation of digital technology to enhance active and healthy living”, with a number of thematic areas directly relevant to SmartWork.

AAL Forum and the Danish city of Aarhus will also host the 2019 EIP on AHA Conference of Partners 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.

SmartWork partners are looking forward to disseminating information about the project’s mission and work so far to the AAL and AHA communities, and to exchanging experiences and ideas on using digital technology to support and retain the silver workforce (Theme 5 in the Forum Programme).

Come and meet some of the SmartWork team at a booth in the Exhibition area which will open Tuesday 24th from 9.00 to 18.00 and Wednesday 25th from 9.00 to 18.00.
