CITADEL Range – Cyber Infrastructure for Training in Advanced Defence Exercises and Learning Range – is a project funded by the European Defence Agency (EDF) and aims to study, design, prototype, test, and qualify a suite of cost-effective and advanced cyber range tools and frameworks tailored to prepare the EU and its Member States’ armed […]

FEDORA project aims to make European transport more efficient, sustainable, and user-centred, connecting multiple transport modes (road, rail, air, and waterways) through intelligent data sharing and advanced digital tools. European mobility systems face increasing challenges: Transport networks are fragmented, with limited coordination across road, air, rail, logistics, and micro-mobility services. Data from different operators and authorities

The EU-funded SOCIAREM project aims to empower citizens and communities to take an active role in the energy transition by developing digital tools and open-source models to make the adoption of photovoltaic systems easier and more inclusive. The transition to renewable energy, particularly through the widespread adoption of distributed solar PV systems, is hindered by significant

VICTORIOUS (Innovative AI-Enhanced, Remotely Powered, Indirect Fire Observation System Utilising Unmanned Vehicles) aims to modernise and upgrade the fire support observation and threat detection of land operations through cutting-edge technology and innovative solutions. Indirect fire support using artillery, mortars, and rockets is essential for engaging enemy targets beyond direct line of sight, typically hidden behind

The EU – funded FOCAL project effort aims to design and implement a unified framework for Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) across edge networked environments — a critical milestone in ensuring Europe’s cybersecurity resilience in the quantum era. FOCAL (Functional Composition of Post-Quantum Cryptosystems at Large) is one of three projects funded by the European Cybersecurity Competence Centre (ECC) and

The European project CY-ESM aims to create a modern and integrated epidemiological surveillance mechanism for infectious diseases, capable of responding to modern public health challenges in Cyprus. Cyprus, situated in the southeastern Mediterranean and a member of the EU, handled COVID-19 relatively well. Despite strained hospitals, the country managed to keep the number of deaths

The SmartCharge project aims to develop an intelligent platform to manage Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations — integrating EV chargers, renewable energy sources (RES), and energy storage systems. The electricity and transportation sectors collectively amount to approximately half the total world emissions. Hence, it is imperative that actions are taken towards reducing the emissions from

The SIGNAL-RES project aims to deliver a vital solution for energy market participation by both existing and future photovoltaic (PV) power plants in Cyprus. The energy transition towards greater reliance on Renewable Energy Sources (RES), particularly PV plants, requires advanced energy management solutions capable of navigating the complexities of modern electricity markets. Current solutions in

The EU-funded project COLLARIS2 (COLLaborative network on unmanned AeRIal Systems 2) focuses on the use of UAS (e.g., drones) in the field of civil protection and disaster management. Building upon the results of COLLARIS, COLLARIS2 aims to continue, expand and further develop the already established international network of crisis management and civil protection practitioners, research institutions

The EU-funded 6G-VERSUS project leverages cutting-edge 6G research facilities across Europe to explore the frontiers of sustainable technology. The global push for sustainability demands innovative solutions that blend technological progress with strategic experimentation. Achieving these outcomes not only requires advanced technology, but also its effective application across diverse industries.  Environmental challenges across multiple sectors underscore

ArguMammoNet aims to empower clinicians with cutting-edge explainable and trustworthy AI, reduce mortality rates by facilitating earlier and more accurate breast cancer diagnoses, and improve resource efficiency by developing robust AI tools to serve as “second readers” or “tie breakers”, in resource-constrained settings. Breast cancer continues to be a major public health concern globally, with

The WaterSAFE project addresses the growing threat of malicious attacks on water distribution Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), an unprecedented risk to public health, safety, and critical infrastructure operations. While the integration of Information Technology with Operational Technology in water organizations has revolutionized the evolution of smart water systems, it has also exposed security vulnerabilities. WaterSAFE introduces

The ePowerMove project aims to develop solutions to accelerate the Electric Vehicles (EV) transition with affordable, user-centric, and scalable slow-charging solutions seamlessly integrated with the grid. Electric car markets have grown exponentially in recent years and the trend continues to strengthen. The EU has passed legislation to match its electrification ambitions, and more research and

The EUSOME Excellence Hub is a 4-year European project that aims to revolutionize the air mobility ecosystem in the Southeast Mediterranean region by addressing specific regional challenges, such as transporting goods, surveilling complex landscapes, tackling fire risks, and monitoring traffic congestion. The emergence of large drone systems that can be integrated with intelligent coordination technology

OMRES is a project at the forefront of Europe’s green energy transition, targeting the seamless integration of zero-emission power technologies into the existing power system. The project’s core objective is the development of digitalized operating and maintenance solutions for hybrid renewable energy sources (RES) systems, including storage, with a focus on enhancing technology performance and
