Healthy Ageing Innovation Cluster (HAIC)

Our cluster builds on the principles of Ageing 2.0, which is an international, interdisciplinary, and intergenerational community that strives to address the biggest challenges and opportunities in ageing. To date, HAIC has been focusing on identifying, and giving a Scottish context to, opportunities within the Aging 2.0 Grand Challenges.

We work with our partners to promote positive approaches to healthy ageing, using digital solutions and services to transform care. We have a wealth of knowledge, learning and experience to share through the membership of our cluster.

Digital Solutions for Healthy Ageing

We are working in partnership with Technology Enabled Care to develop a Healthy Ageing Innovation Cluster to identify and explore 21st century digital solutions for healthy ageing. Watch our animation to learn more about Next Generation Solutions!

The Digital Health & Care Innovation Centre (DHI) delivered a stimulating Healthy Aging workshop at TEDxGlasgow 2019. It was well chaired and generated a thought-provoking discussion amongst the groups with a diverse range of views and suggestions. The materials provided were a really innovative way of facilitating a discussion.
