Global Call for Startups: Apply to Collaborate

What does it take to scale innovation for older adults to thrive at home? 

Your game-changing startup for ADLs meets a multinational, multi-billion dollar, multi-faceted consumer goods corporation with brands that have been trusted by people for over 180 years . . .

AGENCY is collaborating with Procter & Gamble Ventures to scale ideas that help people age with choice and dignity. 

The biggest threat to thriving at home as we age is the ability to maintain self-care for our Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) . . .

 

Do you have a solution to:

  • De-risk Showering

  • Improve Personal Hygiene 

  • Manage Continence (and UTI) 

  • Detect and Encourage Hydration

  • Maintain Skin Health 

  • Strengthen Mobility and Prevent Falls 

 

Does your solution:

  • Solve a hard problem in a dignified way 

  • Address the needs of both the older adult and those who care for them

  • Involve a fast-moving consumable product that is used frequently with noticeable superiority,  

  • Have early proof that people want to try it, like it, and want to use it again.
     

Are you looking for a recognized brand leader and channel partner who can help you:

  • Adapt and refine your innovation for a meaningful number of older consumers 

  • Develop a brand strategy that resonates

  • Overcome manufacturing, supply chain, regulatory, and marketing hurdles

  • Access global markets ?
