The IONIS (Indoor and Outdoor Supported System for Dementia Challenges) project addresses the needs of people with dementia and their caregivers. Its intention was to exploit NITICS innovation and extend the platform with new technologies and services for both indoor and outdoor support.

The project was carried out by an international consortium consisting of 10 partners from Switzerland, Hungary, Poland, Slovenia and Romania. More details on the entire project can be found at its website: https://ionis.eclexys.com/
