CERIS Annual Event 2022: Fighting Crime and Terrorism and Resilient Infrastructure

On 27-28 Sept 2022, DG HOME organized in Brussels the “CERIS Annual Event 2022:  Fighting Crime and Terrorism and Resilient Infrastructure”. Ilias Gkotsis from SATWATS participated as panellist during the strategic discussion about “Market uptake of innovation stemming from research projects”.

During the panel session, the effective approach of 7SHEILD project was highlighted, focusing on the developments of SATWAYS (i.e. advanced technologies for physical and cyber threats prevention), also pinpointing how the project benefited from the Horizon Results Booster (HRB).

Further to the project and individual developments, the DOs and DON’Ts with regards to market uptake from research projects were discussed. Moreover, the goal of the Panel – the reduction of the distance between research and the market – was tackled by fostering the main differences between research and commercial products, and the processes and tools used to bridge the gap between these two worlds.

SATWAYS is proud of its contribution to both 7SHIELD and the CERIS annual event and takes this chance to thanks the organisers for the invitation to such an outstanding event.

Looking forward to contributing to more security innovative solutions and respective CERIS events!
