Netwell Centre

Formed in July 2006 the aim of the Nestling Technology for Wellness Centre (Netwell) is to provide a regional centre of excellence for the applied research, development and exploitation of sensor, digital media and ICT technologies that support sustainable environments, enhancing the quality of life and well-being of older people living independently. The centre’s primary objectives are set out below:

  • Focus on Post-diagnostic Interventions - Build IP through developing a unique competency in integrated home-based post-diagnostic digital interventions to compliment existing centres of excellence in sensor-based early detection and knowledge engineering.
  • Product Innovation for Regional Wnterprise - Assist new and existing regional SMEs to (re)direct innovative products and services towards the senior citizens’ home-based e-health markets, through integrating and commercialising IP developed within the centre.
  • Influence Public Health Policy - Through the successful implementation of outputs through partner companies, achieve an indirect target of reducing the need for institutional care.
