Age Innovation Prize
The Age Innovation Prize of the Institute for Ageing Research IAF in partnership with the Age-Stiftung is a Switzerland-wide competition that promotes innovative ideas that deal with the challenges of age(ing). It honours innovative technological (AgeTech) and social projects that promote the independence, social inclusion, quality of life and health of older people.
Demographic change is accelerating. New solutions are needed to support older adults in living socially connected, independent and healthy lives. Whether through neighbourhood initiatives, intergenerational activities, community‑building concepts, movement programmes, wearable health technologies, smart-home systems or digital tools that foster participation – the opportunities for innovation in ageing are vast.
With the Age Innovation Prize, the IAF Institute for Ageing Research, in partnership with the Age-Foundation and together with sponsors such as Margerite, promotes innovative and passionate ideas that can sustainably change and improve the lives of older people with their projects. In addition to technological innovations, social innovations will also be specifically promoted from 2026 onwards. These include solutions that enable new forms of coexistence, support, and participation for older people.
The Age Innovation Prize helps to create a better future for older people.
