💥 WOW 💥 Last month was just a bit exciting! We were blown away by the positive interest in our announcement with mecwacare to provide 22 Abi’s to their Victorian aged care homes – providing additional joy and companionship for residents. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ Obviously, this is exciting for us but it turns out it was to a few other people too... more than 6 million at last count, with 600+ items on TV and radio and in newspaper, magazine and online media! It was fantastic to see the growing connections between Abi and mecwacare residents showcased in so many ways. Our favourite piece of media coverage? 🤖 If we had to choose one, it might be Abi speaking Polish with 9News reporter Izabella Staskowski 🤖 Or Anne McCormack MAICD on Special Broadcasting Service (SBS) Australia sharing why her organisation chose Abi. But there were so many heartwarming moments, and so many more to come. ❤️ For now, we hope you enjoy this highlights reel of what was one of Abi’s busiest media weeks to date. 😉 #AgedCare #Robotics #HumanoidCompanion #SocialRobotics Porter Novelli Australia Grace Brown

We’re proud to announce our partnership with Australian robotics company Andromeda to introduce Abi, an Australian-first robotic companion, to mecwacare residents. Abi, designed to combat loneliness and enhance social connections, uses AI to engage in conversation in 90 languages and supports cognitive care. “We’re constantly striving to help older Australians overcome loneliness,” said Anne McCormack, mecwacare CEO. “Our residents have lived long, meaningful lives and we’re committed to making the rest of their lives as fulfilling as we can. We’re excited to partner with Andromeda to help build meaningful connections through Abi’s compassion and curiosity.” We’re excited to see how Abi will transform the experience for both residents and staff across mecwacare.
