The Challenge:
As Singapore’s population ages, an estimated 83,000
seniors will live alone and 100,000 will experience at
least mild disability*, increasing their risks of falls,
medical emergencies, and isolation. The current
eldercare solutions are often costly or lack real-time
support, leaving critical gaps in safety and
independence at home.

The Breakthrough:
BOP Pte Ltd is reimagining senior care with its BOP -
Buddy Of Parents (part of iWOW Technology) platform,
using IoT and AI to help seniors age safely and
independently at home. Its flagship BOP Button, already
installed in over 10,000 HDB rental flats, connects
seniors to 24/7 emergency support and alerts caregivers
instantly, with no Wi-Fi needed.
The Solution:
With support from the Impact Beyond Award, BOP - Buddy
Of Parents (part of iWOW Technology) will develop two
new BOP products, BOP Presence and BOP Companion,
increasing outreach to vulnerable seniors through
strategic partnerships, and driving international
growth.
