Members of the ILDA-care Business Case Award
(Stuttgart) – In conjunction with their German project partners, two Danish med-tech companies have been presented
with the ILDA-care Business Case Award by BioRegio STERN Management GmbH and Welfare Tech. The ideas
singled out for acclaim as part of the EU ILDA-care project were the “Age-Based Mobile Adaptive Micro apartment –
AMAM”, which is aimed at creating age-appropriate living space, and the “Virtual Rehabilitation and Training” virtual
training system. ILDA-care stands for “Intelligent Logistics, Digitalisation and Automated Workflows for the Homecare
and Nursing homes sector” and is an EU initiative to systematically improve efficiency in the care industry. At the end of
April, a special workshop was staged with the winning teams to further develop their business ideas.
The second winning team involves cooperation between Lars Jessen, CEO of the Danish IT company Life Partners A/S,
and Christian Frede from AmbiGate GmbH, based in Tübingen, Germany. They received the award for their idea “Virtual
Rehabilitation and Training”. They aim to develop a platform that supports nursing homes and outpatient care in
organising and implementing physiotherapy applications. “We want an integrated solution for virtual training,
communication, cooperation, advice and analysis,” explains Frede. AmbiGate GmbH has already developed a 3D-based
therapy system with innovative motion detection and analysis for rehabilitation and healthcare. Jessen, who has
business experience in the Danish healthcare sector, is responsible for areas including the Life Manager Community
Platform. This can be used in domestic environments and in-patient facilities alike and simplifies communication
between patients and their families and friends.
