Delegation trip to San Francisco, GETA International 2025

9.–12.9.2025

GETA International Network is a transfer and development network against loneliness and for digital participation for older adults - an international learning and development partnership. ​

Participants in the delegation trip will gain a direct insight into Californian innovation ecosystems relating to digitalization, health and social participation. They will learn about innovations to combat loneliness and promote digital participation in old age - through visits to Californian start-ups and local innovation partners. The companies also benefit from the exchange with leading minds from science, business and civil society in the USA and can take away ideas for their own projects, strategies and pilot projects in Germany. 

The costs for planning and carrying out the trip are covered by the Senate Department for Economics, Energy and Public Enterprises and by EU funds. Participants only have to cover travel and accommodation costs.
