Already during its first year, the European Silver Economy Awards have been able to attract a high number of innovators dedicated to supporting and improving the quality of life of older people with the help of ICT. 95 applications from 22 countries have been submitted for consideration of being honoured as the first Silver Economy Awards’ winners. The laureates have been selected following a three-staged selection process, involving over 40 Silver Economy experts. Further to this, SEED could embed the knowledge of its Advisory Board members and is very proud to have official support from the Covenant on Demographic Change, the European Commission as well as the Committee of the Regions. Currently, the award is powered by the Covenant on Demographic Change.
