Abstract:
One of the key challenges for the next several years is to face, especially in highly developed countries, the problem of aging and its impact on the general quality of citizens’ life. Due to this trend, the Authors have presented a concept of ICT platform aimed at increasing the activity of people at retirement age. It is dedicated to members of local communities, can be used to support entrepreneurship, self-fulfilment and activation in the field of independent social life. During the realization of the project, the Authors have noticed the different business requirements of senior citizens. They were described in the article together with respective technological innovations which were implemented in the ActGo-Gate platform as an answer to these challenges and requirements.
