eXyo is a UK-based SME that intends to address the issue of a lack of effective therapy solutions for fall prevention. This lack is most felt in the over-65 population, a third of whom are expected to suffer at least one fall annually. COVID-19 and the associated lockdown have caused considerable additional strain for this population. eXyo's core team, comprising Andrew Morgan, Christopher Hughes and Jonathan Charlesworth, with experience in product design and development, clinical development and mechanical engineering specialising in rehabilitative technologies, are developing a standing/balance rehabilitation aid that facilitates remote supervision and gamified therapy. In doing so, eXyo proposes a year-5 post-project revenue of £7.2M.

eXyo是一家总部位于英国的中小企业，旨在解决缺乏有效的跌倒预防治疗解决方案的问题。这种缺乏在65岁以上的人口中感受最深，其中三分之一预计每年至少跌倒一次。COVID-19及相关的封锁已对该人群造成相当大的额外压力。eXyo的核心团队由Andrew Morgan、Christopher Hughes和Jonathan Charlesworth组成，他们在产品设计和开发、临床开发以及专门从事康复技术的机械工程方面拥有丰富的经验，正在开发一种站立/平衡康复辅助设备，以促进远程监督和游戏化治疗。在这样做的过程中，eXyo提出了一个为期5年的项目后收入为720万英镑。
