Israel – CABHI

The Centre for Aging + Brain Health Innovation (CABHI) and Israel Innovation Authority are excited to launch their third round of the Canada-Israel Collaboration Program. This program is intended to accelerate the evaluation and adoption of innovative products and services that address the needs of aging adults and the challenges presented by an aging population.

CABHI and Israel Innovation Authority invite Israeli companies to apply for the opportunity to trial their solutions with leading seniors care organizations from across Canada. Successful applicants will be partnered with one or more seniors care organizations and their pilot project will receive up-to CAD $250,000 in matching-fund support. Projects must last between 12-15 months and commence by September 2018.

It is expected that through this testing process, companies will be able to derive scientific evidence and user validation for their products or services, which is then intended to provide a stronger foundation for future uptake of their products or services by seniors’ care organizations. Applicants must have a matured product or service that they would like to test with older adults at a Canadian trial partner site.
