The emerging companies' executive summaries were evaluated on a scale of 1 to 10. Judging criteria consist of several key points including: the professionalism of the written summary, current stage of development (customers, revenue), competitive advantage and need in the marketplace, feasibility for success, and whether the company is "VentureWorthy(TM).
Living Well provides home-based, high-end, and comprehensive care for elders. It offers an exclusive and well-managed alternative for those seniors who want the security and comfort of a retirement community without having to sell their homes and relocate. 89% of seniors do not want to leave their homes. Living Well listened to the needs and preferences of older adults planning for their futures and created a model of care that puts the senior in the driving seat by creating opportunities for lifelong learning and access to quality care for those who may need support as they age in place. The current choices for those that need care are either fragmented and low quality home care or selling the family home to move to a facility where independence is exchanged for the security of group living. By combining five star service, smart technologies, green practices, medical advocacy, gerontological wellness programming, and concierge service, Living Well is taking home-based care into the 21st century. Living Well enhances and expands the older person's world, connecting people, building community, and providing quality care.
Tessa ten Tusscher, C.E.O. of Living Well, states, "We are honored that FundingPost has named us one of the leading emerging companies. As an early stage company, it's great to be recognized by a national panel of venture capital investors. It certainly provides validity to our concept of care, our market, and business model."
