Organisations encouraged to apply for social care tech funding
Organisations can apply for a share of up to £1.25 million to develop technology that creates more efficient and effective adult social care systems.
The Small Business Research Initiative (SBRI) competition aims to use technology to make adult social care provision more effective and efficient, and reduce demand on social care services.
This competition is looking for proposals for technology that can track data in real-time and use it to inform how resources are deployed and prioritised to the best effect. This could include: using technology to improve the point of entry into adult social care; creating more dynamic and flexible care systems that respond to changing needs; and making better use of evidence to inform commissioning both now and in the future.
