Become part of a small team and shape the future of our grandparents' and parents' lives.What we doIn our vision of the future, more and more people will grow old in their own homes. To make this possible, we need to change the approach to how we care for them. We believe that the virtual care home will become the norm and that's why we have already started to work on it today. The first building block for our vision is to bridge the digital divide between the possibilities of the digital world and people that do not can or want to use a smartphone. In the last four years, we developed CARU care - a digital flatmate that provides access to digital services via voice."People want to grow old at home independently and actively.Technology will be used to provide them with decentralized care. At the moment, we are therefore at the beginning of a massive transformation towards digital care.CARU care is a state-of-the-art technology hardware-software platform to provide a reliable and simple interface between all stakeholders, enabling the digital care of the future."
