To gain better insights in the success – and the potential pitfalls – of projects aiming to improve dementia care, the 3TU Humans&Tecnology Research Centre organized a symposium in which care professionals, patients, and technology developers presented their perspectives. Each presentation closed with a set of questions for the audience, allowing them to discuss and collaborate. The symposium focused on so-called “lessons learned”, and fostering mutual understanding between the different types of parties: what motivated them to be part of a collaborative research project, and what could each of them bring to the table?

During the networking breaks, poster sessions were organized, in which Connected Care presented the CoME project to the symposium attendees.
