September 16 - 20, 2024: Switzerland-wide Roadshow
We're touring Switzerland again!
September 16 - 20, 2024
The technology roadshow «New technologies - new age(ing)?» aims to inform the population about the status of available age-related technologies. We will be traveling to various cities throughout Switzerland for a week in September.
Following on from 2022 and 2023, we will be touring various cities in Switzerland again this year. Our barrier-free trailer will once again be equipped with many technologies that support older people in their everyday lives. Visitors can find out about these aids and try some of them out for themselves.
With the roadshow, we want to reach a broad public, mobilize stakeholders and bring them together. We also want to enter into a dialog with the public to find out what fears and scepticism exist with regard to new aids and technologies.
