Connect America, a provider of digital health and connected care for seniors and vulnerable populations, signed a definitive agreement to acquire 100Plus, a remote monitoring platform that uses an AI-enabled virtual assistant called Ava, for an undisclosed amount.
Connect America, a Detroit-based Rockbridge Growth Equity portfolio company, focuses on seniors and other vulnerable populations. The company’s CEO, Janet Dillione, said, “We couldn’t be more thrilled to add 100Plus to our extensive line of solutions that help aging and vulnerable individuals live safely in their homes,”
Janet Dillione added: “As we continue to grow and evolve, this next-generation technology and platform, along with the talented 100Plus team, strengthen our connected care DNA and expand on our mission of enriching the aging journey for the senior population.”

“We couldn’t be more thrilled to add 100Plus to our extensive line of solutions that help aging and vulnerable individuals live safely in their homes,” said Janet Dillione, CEO of Connect America. “As we continue to grow and evolve, this next-generation technology and platform, along with the talented 100Plus team, strengthen our connected care DNA and expand on our mission of enriching the aging journey for the senior population.”
