2. Focus on distribution and implementation!
- but how?
”Too many danish companies and entrepreneurs experience
great challenges when getting their innovative product on
market since they often stall at the gab between prototype
and market.”

all pool their knowledge, needs and facilities into
a common model for collaboration drawing in
citizens and companies. There by creating a
unique opportunity to test and develop
tomorrows assisted living technologies in
accordance with real end-user needs alongside
