Ai Kaigo Singapore - How we began
アイ介護について

As the leading social enterprise powered by the University of Oxford Entrepreneurship Project module, AI KAIGO recognizes that we live in a time of great change and upheaval. Uncertainty is the only constant. We know the importance of giving dignity to all people despite these uncertainties. While we cannot ensure certainty, we strive to give happiness and dignity to all customers who use our products and services. 

Happiness and dignity have never been easier to achieve with all the technologies now at our fingertips. In our unrelenting pursuit of the good life, however, it is also easy for us to forget those elements which truly matters: a purposeful life, meaningful relationship relations and peace of mind. Let AI KAIGO bring you back to all these and more with our world's first auto bed-transfer smart wheelchair.

Headquartered in Singapore and with office branches in Tokyo and at the University of Oxford, we believe that all of our customers deserve the highest level of smart wheelchairs and top service quality, and we are committed to bring happiness and dignity to you.​ Our freedom smart wheelchair is truly designed in Singapore, piloted in Japan, and powered by Oxford. 

​​

Since its establishment, AI KAIGO has been known for an unparalleled commitment to customer satisfaction. It is this standard of excellence that has provided the impetus for us to grow into the business we are today. 

We believe that the customer always comes first - and that only means exceptional products and exceptional services. Get in touch with us today to see what we have to offer!

オックスフォード大学の「Enterpreneurship Project」を活用する企業として、AI KAIGOは、大きな変化と激動の時代に生きていることを認識しています。不確実性が唯一の定数です。私たちは、これらの不確実性にもかかわらず、すべての人々に尊厳を与えることの重要性を知っています。確実性を保証することはできませんが、当社の製品やサービスを利用するすべてのお客様に幸福を与えることができように目指します。

幸福と尊厳は、私たちの指先にあるすべてのテクノロジーでこれまでになく簡単に実現できます。しかし、良い人生の追求において、私たちにとって本当に重要な要素、つまり目的のある人生、有意義な人間関係、そして心の安らぎを忘れることも簡単です。 AI KAIGOが、世界初の自動ベッドトランスファー車椅子で、これらすべてにあなたを連れ戻してくれます。
