Independence, Engineered: Hardware for Aging Well
What if getting older felt like an upgrade?
A long walk with friends. A meal enjoyed at your own pace. Moving through your home, on your own, at 2am if you feel like it.
These aren't trivial actions - they are life-affirming activities. And we're excited to bring you advanced technology that gives you the agency to keep doing them, at any age.
Join us for "Independence, Engineered: Hardware for Aging Well" -an AgeTech Connect Boston Showcase
Try on the future. Literally.
In this hands-on evening, you'll demo breakthrough robotic and assistive tech products - and talk directly with the founders who are building them. Your feedback shapes next revs, and your voice joins a wider conversation about scaling these solutions to everyone who needs them.
Meet the Founders & Their Innovations
Luke Mooney | Dephy - The Sidekick Powered footwear that makes every step feel easier. Helping people move with greater confidence, for anyone who refuses to let "range anxiety" shrink their world.
Alex Malashenko | Revimo - The Niko A personal powered lift that makes moving from bed to chair to bathroom a one-person operation with a joystick - elegant, dignified, no slings, no two-person transfers, no waiting on a caregiver.
Will Muter | Reachable - The Omnicuff A universal grip device that puts forks, cups, phones and more back in hand - giving people with Parkinson's and neurological conditions greater control and spontaneity.
Immerse in an Extraordinary Room
You'll be in the company of innovators, clinicians, researchers, policymakers, investors, and aging services advocates - all working toward the same goal: an aging experience that's defined by what you can do, not by mobility impairments that constrain you.
