AgeTech - using existing and emerging advanced technologies to support health and well-being in later life - is increasingly being recognized as a key component of the services we provide. This sector has enormous potential to not only improve the quality of all of our lives as we age, but to create good jobs and spark economic growth. STAR continues to support and nurture this process. The mission of the STAR Institute is to make Simon Fraser University a world leader in research and innovation in the AgeTech sector, becoming an essential resource for industry and services in British Columbia. 

We have been highly active over the last year and wanted to take a moment to provide a summary of key projects and accomplishments, including projects and partnerships that are in the pipeline as we move forward.
