In order to do this, the partners from Frederikshavn Anne Abildgaard and Linda Hejes attended for explaining to people, how the services work on the background of their knowledge and experience from working directly with the elderly people with mild dementia at the Frederikshavn pilot site. The manager of pilot operation Anelia Mitseva from North Denmark EU-Office and her colleagues Imre Danel and Heidi Westerby were also at the demo stand with the objective to explain the technical level of the ISISEMD services.

A 10-min presentation of the ISISEMD project was conducted by Anelia Mitseva and was rated by a panel of four expert reviewers. There was an audience of 30 people, approximately. The purpose was to explain and present the ISISEMD project to potential investors, thus create awareness. Focal points were to present the objective and background of the project, results and perspectives. The reviewers’ feedback was positive and they showed interest in the project idea and results, however, the project not being completed yet was a challenge for explaining future points and decisions in the project. In general, the ISISEMD project attracted interest of the audience and reviewers.
