Konnektis
Enhancing care through better communication. Co-designed with people, for people.
At Konnektis, we're working to solve an important problem that will make a huge difference to millions of people. We are developing a digital platform to encourage better real-time communication and collaboration between carers of older people, be they relatives, friends, paid carers or local volunteers. Our society faces a rapidly ageing population and the current paper-based systems for managing elderly care are not working effectively. Our vision is to create a coherent system that supports the highest quality care, providing greater accountability and a better quality of life for older people in our communities.
