Everon UK has joined techUK, the growing membership organisation that brings people, companies and organisations together to realise what digital technology can achieve through shaping policy, accelerating innovation and developing new markets.
As the European market leader in digital grouped assisted living solutions, Everon UK is championing the transition to a data-driven preventative model of care that allows care givers to detect issues early through pinpointing changes in behaviour. This aligns with TechUK’s ongoing mission to showcase how technology can tackle challenges facing society today.
Based in Kent, Everon UK has used 2024 to pursue strategic partnerships with exciting innovators like Howz located at Manchester Science Park to develop intelligent technology solutions that will power the next generation of care, allowing more people to live independently for longer.
Peter Kerly, Managing Director, Everon UK, said:
“We are delighted to announce our latest partnership as a new member of techUK, and look forward to playing our part in their mission to show just what digital technology can achieve. For us, that will involve transforming the wider health and care system, reducing hospital stays and spiralling costs for care home and emergency admissions.”
“This is a time of significant pressures on social care and health care, in terms of both capacity and cost, set against the backdrop of a demographic time bomb caused by a growing older population. For us, the future lies in a technology driven, preventative model of care, and we look forward to working closely with techUK and other partners to showcase and realise that potential.”
Ed Bevan, Head of SME Engagement at techUK, said:
"We are thrilled to welcome Everon UK to techUK. Everon's pioneering work in developing a data-driven, preventative care model is transforming the way we approach health and social care.
“Their innovative solutions in early issue detection and behaviour monitoring align seamlessly with techUK's mission to showcase how digital technology can tackle society’s most pressing challenges. We look forward to supporting Everon’s journey as they collaborate with like-minded partners to shape the future of intelligent, proactive care solutions."
Everon, the European market leader in digital grouped living solutions, has announced a strategic partnership with Siemens Leasing to help health, housing and social care providers with the cost of adopting the latest in technology enabled care (TEC).
As an approved partner, the company will be able to provide flexible payment schemes that will allow potential clients to better manage the cost of adopting the next generation of at-home care. Benefits will include:
Peter Kerly, Managing Director, Everon UK, said: “We want to make it easier for our existing and future clients to invest in our digital solutions with minimal up-front costs. This partnership with Siemens Leasing will help us to achieve that goal.
“It is an exciting time for Everon as a business and for the TEC sector more broadly as we move closer to the end of analogue in telecare with new digital technologies coming on stream that will ensure people can live independently for longer.
“We now have the capability to monitor people’s health from anywhere - helping to provide better care, from fall detection to location identification. This new partnership will allow more clients to invest in systems with the potential to transform healthcare as we know it.”
The strategic partnership with Siemens Leasing comes as many clients consider their options for future investment in digital solutions before 2027 when all analogue telephone services will cease across the UK in favour of digital-only connectivity.
Everon provides end-to-end digital grouped living and home care solutions with over 100,000 connections in use across Finland, Sweden and the UK. In March 2024 the company announced new partnerships with Howz, Develco Products IRIS-IoT and Cair to collaborate on a range of new smart assisted living solutions.
These will link Everon’s devices and sensors with Howz’s machine learning and change detection technology, giving clients the care insights needed to detect issues early and intervene before they escalate. The aim: to improve proactive care within the home and reduce the need for care home and emergency admissions.

Strategic partnerships with Howz, Develco Products, IRIS-IoT and Cair to collaborate on assisted living solutions.
Everon, the European market leader in digital grouped living solutions, used its platform as headline sponsor at the International Technology Enabled Care Conference (ITEC) 2024 to announce four new strategic partnerships aimed at helping more people to live longer, healthier lives at home.
The collaborations with Howz and their technical partner Develco Products, IRIS-IoT & Cair were announced at The ICC in Birmingham. ITEC is the UK’s leading assisted living technology event with a focus on transforming futures through knowledge, innovation and action.
Everon will work with each of the new partners on assisted living solutions that will contribute to improved proactive care within the home and reduced need for care home and emergency admissions.
Peter Kerly, Managing Director, Everon UK, said: “The four strategic partnerships we’ve announced at ITEC 2024 are key to ensuring people can live independently for longer. The Health, Housing and Social Care sectors are starting to work more closely together recognising the changing landscape when it comes to assisted living.
“The King’s Fund, in a report published last month, makes it clear the health and care system in England must shift its focus away from hospital care to primary and community services if it is to be effective and sustainable. Care providers recognise that things can’t go on as they are and it’s up to solution-focused businesses like ours to respond.”
“Technology has always played an important role but its potential in ensuring that health and care providers can deliver the most appropriate interventions at the right time has yet to be fully realised – an ambition we have set out to achieve with our strategic partners.
“It is our belief that assistive technology such as fall detection, location identification and constant connectivity heartbeats, can be used to empower independence, preventing accidents, and responding rapidly in an emergency. People are happier at home and through partnerships such as those we’ve announced today, we want to ensure they have that choice.”
Kate Fairhurst, Managing Director of Howz, said, “Howz and Everon will bring the next generation of proactive care technology to assisted living providers. With Everon’s devices and sensors, and Howz’s machine learning and change detection, our clients will receive the care insight needed to detect issues early and intervene before they escalate.
“Through work with NHS Trusts and local authorities, Howz have evidenced that delivery of proactive care within the home can reduce care home admissions by 42% and emergency admissions by 32%. Howz and Everon will ensure that users in assisted living have access to the technology they need to maintain longer, healthier lives at home.”
Rachel Bennett, Business Development Director UK, Develco Products, said: “We are delighted to work with Everon and Howz to offer digital care solutions in the UK. Together, we can enable vulnerable people to live at home safely, promote earlier hospital discharge, and prevent hospital admissions.”
Stephen Westley, Chief Technology Officer, IRIS-IoT, said: “This landmark partnership marks the beginning of a new era in smart home innovation. Leveraging our joint expertise, IRIS-IoT and Everon will introduce ground-breaking tech solutions to enhance living experiences, streamline operations, and promote sustainability using the latest mobile technologies available.
“Iris-IoT is a well-respected pioneering company in the telecom sector and over the last 12 months, we have worked with Everon to build a solution to be fit for purpose for the housing sector. Our collaboration with Everon shows a new dawn for how specialist partners can work together to build innovative forward-thinking solutions.”
Mohammed Chaudhary, Managing Director, Cair, said: “At Cair we believe that everyone’s lives can be improved through innovative solutions and better design. Everon recognised the value of Cair’s portfolio of peripherals, and we are pleased that their adoption will benefit a wider cohort of users.
