To seize opportunities in Japan’s rapidly aging market, Taiwan’s smart assistive technology SME, Netown Corporation, has partnered with nine outstanding care technology Taiwanese SMEs to establish the Taiwan CareTech Alliance. Under this brand, the alliance aims to expand into Japan’s growing silver economy, showcasing Taiwan’s capabilities in smart elderly care solutions.

To build a more comprehensive long-term care technology ecosystem, the alliance has introduced two innovative integrated products: “Smart Nursing Bed” and “Smart Group Trainer.” These products combine AI-driven health monitoring, support, and interactive functions, ushering in a new era of intelligent elderly care.

To strengthen its international reach, the alliance has launched a series of short promotional videos, an official website, and multi-platform social media channels (including LinkedIn and X/Twitter) to highlight Taiwan’s strengths in integrated assistive technologies.

Furthermore, the alliance has actively collaborated with Japan’s Kyushu Medical Equipment Group Federation and the Japan Overseas Medical Equipment Technical Assistants, gaining strong recognition and support from local organizations.
