LIFE 2.0 will provide ..
 A stronger and visual connection between elderly people living
independently in their own home and the surrounding environment,
including relatives, friends, caregivers and relevant services
 An intense exchange of information, to create an additional layer of
information that backs-up existing assistance channels with a
network of social interactions
 A new socio-economic ecosystem, that is accessible by senior
people as well as local service providers (small business,
assistance services, local restaurants, food shops, local libraries,
cultural initiatives) that can provide relevant services to elderly
people
 Change in the social role of elderly people from patient to a
resource for other elderly people and possibly for the citizens in the
area.
