Before the summer vacation break, BLB was awarded the task of finalizing development of and helping to launch the application envisioned in the Online innovation project. Managed by Åbo Akademi in Vaasa, the project also involves stakeholders in the Seinäjoki region and in Västerbotten, Sweden. Its main focus is to, via a new digital service co-created together with the end-users, promote meaningful social interaction and activity amongst senior citizens.
The past week, there have been several meetings with interested organisations on their wishes, needs and ideas to help make this app more suited not only to the organisations, but especially to the senior citizens who are the target audience.
With a few more meetings with stakeholder organisations still to be held, BLB will present a proposal on which features and improvements to include in the final version of the application. After review, the changes will be implemented and ultimately the process of launching the app and implementing it in the involved organisations will begin.
Stay tuned for more updates.
