      ab: Background: This paper presents the researchers' experiences with recruiting people living with dementia for a field study aimed to test or develop non-pharmacological interventions. Performing this kind of research is necessary to be able to provide appropriate and effective interventions for people with dementia. Research aim/questions: The aim is to find out the pros and cons of recruiting PwD for field studies comprising technological innovations. Methods: This short paper is based on the experiences of researchers during their studies, combined with a rapid literature search. Results: Incorporating technological innovations as a non-pharmacological intervention poses a challenge to recruitment success. Several influencing factors influence the success of the recruitment process. For example, personal contact or recruitment via welfare and care organizations can be helpful. Conclusion: Collaboration and different strategies can be helpful for the recruitment process.
