Notice Information

Notice Title

(NU/1719) Accelerator Programme as part the UK-China Fund for International Collaboration Healthy Ageing Project

Notice Description

The successful bidder will be expected to identify and recruit businesses to the accelerator, liaising with organisations such as the Department for International Trade, Innovate UK and NICA. The outcome will be a community of new businesses with strong links to NICA and the UK-China programme delivering new services and products relevant to ageing. Whilst the primary focus will be on companies operating in two key domain areas, namely functional mobility & gait, and the adaptation of urban environments to support the improved mobility of older people, other potential offerings of relevance to the wider sector will be considered where appropriate.
