We recently had the pleasure of welcoming special delegations from Hong Kong and Germany to our iZi experience home.
The group from Hong Kong included representatives of the Hong Kong Productivity Council, entrepreneurs and healthcare providers. The group from Germany consisted of representatives from various German local authorities and healthcare organizations.
Interest in innovative technology
Both groups, each consisting of approximately 50 people, were particularly interested in how residents could be involved in the use of technology at home. They also wanted to know more about innovative products such as the Somnox sleeping robot, the Wolk hip airbag, the Envision glasses and Femly, which makes video calling via the TV possible.
Pride
Both the visitors from Hong Kong and Germany were very enthusiastic about our approach to healthcare technology, the iZi home itself and especially the role of our iZi ambassador. We are proud of our entrepreneurs from The Hague and happy to see how our efforts and collaborations are internationally recognized. We are currently investigating options to connect health tech entrepreneurs from The Hague with delegations from Hong Kong and Germany, so that these healthcare innovations can also be embraced outside the Netherlands.
