Sydney, Australia – mCare Digital is thrilled to announce that it has been honoured with the award for the best assistive living technology at the 12th Asia Pacific Eldercare Innovation Awards 2024. The ceremony, which took place last Thursday in Singapore, recognised the mCareWatch, a personal emergency alarm smartwatch, for its outstanding contribution to independent living for the ageing population.
From a heartfelt idea to assist our ageing father 11 years ago, mCare Digital’s journey has been one of passion, innovation, and commitment. Today, the mCareWatch stands as an internationally celebrated solution, empowering the elderly across the Asia Pacific to live with dignity and independence.
The World Ageing Festival 2024, a beacon for advancements in eldercare, provided the perfect backdrop for this accolade. As part of a week-long event dedicated to ‘ageing’, the Innovation Awards highlighted the world’s top 100 products in Assistive Living, Home & Community Care, Active Ageing, Technology, and Rehabilitation & Wellness. Hosted by Ageing Asia, the festival drew over 5,000 participants from both B2B and B2C sectors, showcasing cutting-edge innovations and industry-leading showcases.
This year’s theme, “Redefining Care: Activating Communities of The Future,” resonated deeply with mCare Digital’s ethos, as we strive to address the evolving needs of eldercare and its significant impact on communities worldwide.
Peter Apostolopoulos, Co-Founder of mCare Digital, who accepted the award in Singapore, expressed his pride in the team’s achievement: “This award is a milestone for mCare Digital and a moment of profound pride for our team. It validates our unwavering dedication to innovation and our mission to enhance the lives of the elderly. We are deeply honoured to receive this recognition and are inspired to continue our work in redefining assistive living technology.”
Being shortlisted alongside remarkable innovations such as the eAlertCare System by Guardman Products Limited (Hong Kong), AGEasy by Antara Senior Care (India), Buddy App by Bolton Clarke (Australia), and Medication Management App by Phamarcare Technology Limited (Hong Kong) was an honour in itself. However, emerging as the winner in this category underscores the significance of our commitment not only to the elderly but also to individuals with disabilities and those seeking personal safety solutions.
Although this award was in the category of assistive living technology that enables independent living for the ageing population, mCare Digital are equally committed to supporting people with disability and those concerned about their personal safety, such as circumstances of domestic and family violence or as staff safety solutions. mCare Digital website: www.mcaredigital.com.au
