One-liner: a care-home operator's eldercare innovation prize — €3,000, a year of free coworking, and above all a chance to pilot inside real residential care centres.
What a founder gets
- Savia Emprende (startups, spin-offs, entrepreneurs): €3,000.
- Savia Investiga (finished academic research — defended theses, completed postdoctoral work or studies on older people): €2,000.
- For both: one year's free workstation at The Terminal Hub, a year's access to the Savia network and its partners, and — where needed — technical support from Savia's technology partner to integrate the solution into the centres where Savia operates.
- Winners present at the Foro SaviAvanza, December 2026.
Who it's for
- Startups, spin-offs or entrepreneurs with scalable solutions applicable to residential care: wellbeing, autonomy and care of older people.
- Researchers with completed work on older people (Investiga category).
How to engage
- Submit by 15 October 2026, 23:59, via Savia's page.
Key facts
- The pilot access is worth more than the cash. Eldercare is a hard market to get evidence in; a live deployment in an operator's homes is the thing a healthtech/agetech founder cannot buy.
- Third edition — recurring, watch ~June 2027.
- Promoted by CEEI Valencia's EmprenemJunts channel and by VIC's monthly ecosystem roundup.
