Join the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (EIP on AHA) and be part of the largest European community of stakeholders engaged in the development and deployment of innovation for Europe’s ageing society!

The European Commission has identified active and healthy ageing as a major societal challenge common to all European countries, and an area which presents considerable potential for Europe to lead the world in providing innovative responses to this challenge. The EIP on AHA was initiated by the European Commission with the following objectives:

– Enable EU citizens to lead healthy, active and independent lives while ageing;

– Improve the sustainability and efficiency of social and health care systems;

– Boost and improve the competitiveness of the markets for innovative products and services, responding to the ageing challenge at both EU and global level, thus creating new opportunities for businesses.

Today, the partnership brings together leading industrial players, research institutes, a vibrant ecosystem of innovators, start-ups, SMEs end-user organisations, regional and national authorities invested in the scaling up of innovative solutions for the ageing society. Together they develop the tools, ideas and innovative socio-economic models that can support the development, deployment and impact measurement of some of the most innovative solutions for active and healthy ageing.

Join the EIP on AHA and help transform the future of our ageing society…..

 The New EIP on AHA Portal and the Call for Commitments has now been launched which allows new organisations to submit commitments as a partner of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing. There are plenty of reasons to submit a commitment and become a partner of the EIP on AHA and you can find out more details about it on the new web portal and the FAQ page.
