Ageing population an opportunity for the smart economy
The Centre for Affective Solutions for Ambient Living Awareness (CASALA) was officially opened at
Dundalk Institute of Technology (DkIT) today (Tuesday 20th April 2010). Established with seed
funding of €2 million from Enterprise Ireland's Applied Research Enhancement programme, the official
opening was performed by Jennifer Condon, Manager of Software & Public Procurement at
Enterprise Ireland, in front of a large crowd of companies from the north east region and further afield
who are working in the ambient assisted living (AAL) sector. AAL is an emerging sector that is
capitalising on the opportunities presented by Europe’s aging population.
