Business Information
Assistive Technology and Telecare is fast becoming an expanding market in the UK and throughout the world. An ageing population, governmental/social drivers for self-care and improving the independence and quality of life of older and disabled people are major drivers for the growth of this industry.
The ATT market is a relatively young entity. While mechanical mobility aids, such as wheelchairs and mobility scooters, are well established products, recent developments in electronic Assistive Technology and Telecare technologies offer new and exciting applications to help people. With novel and innovative products and services regularly being developed, the scope for market expansion or penetration is unlimited.
