The CirOWa Cluster (Circle Of Waste Cluster) is a cluster of businesses involved in the waste chain generated by food production and processing units. The CirOWa Cluster is designed to cover the entire production chain of waste management and serve the goals of the circular economy. The operation of the Cluster is based on the following four pillars: 

Development of integrated systems for waste collection and management, with the application of traceability in the recycling chain. 
Monitoring and exchange of know-how regarding decontamination, anti-pollution, waste utilization (material recovery, energy, by-products, etc.), and the installation/operation of necessary equipment. 

Strengthening innovation in waste processing, biomass production, and environmental technologies. 

Provision of complementary support services to achieve the goals of the other three pillars. 

This research proposal represents the first coordinated effort by the members of the CirOWa Cluster to create value through their collaboration on actions related to applying circular economy principles to the real economy of our country. Specifically, it represents a comprehensive systemic approach to managing the residues and by-products of businesses involved in the food sector. 

Through close collaboration among the 10 project partners, processes related to by-product and waste management were modeled, and innovative systems were developed at a pilot level. These systems leverage information technologies, communications, and the Internet of Things for more rational and efficient management of waste or by-product upgrading processes (upcycle) and their reintegration into the economy in new forms or functions. 

The participating companies in the project are: 

• E Koutsouraki and Co. LP
• Ergoplanning Ltd.
• Biosafety S.A.
• OPTILOG Advisory Services IKE
• QLAB IKE
• Ilyda SA
• Bioenercon Ltd. - Epirus Energy
• Argyri Kelidi Olive Mill SA
• Envirometrics LLC
• Mobics S.A. 

Specifically, Mobics S.A. contributed to the analysis of requirements for creating the Integrated By-Product and Waste Management System, the design and development of the MRP II system for by-product and waste management, and the pilot implementation of the system.

The innovative project "Pleione: Pleiades Internet of Everything," acronym "Pleione IoE," aims to create a smart city platform that allows sensors, smart devices, and multiple other data sources and subsystems of the city to connect through a common infrastructure, where data is gathered, normalized, and analyzed.

Co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund of the European Union (ERDF) and by National Resources through the Operational Programme "Competitiveness, Entrepreneurship and Innovation (EPAnEK)" of NSRF 2014-2020 under the "Collaborative Innovation Formations (CIF)" call (project code: ΓΓ2CL-0364874).

Specifically, the platform implements a unified management framework with combined city data models, as well as standardized application programming interfaces (APIs), ensuring easy data extraction and integration, while also incorporating the necessary semantics of city services and allowing providers of vertical solutions to develop new "smart" horizontal or vertical urban service applications.

Following this architecture, an information management layer is implemented that originates from multiple sources (Legacy systems, Internet of Things (IoT), web applications, open data, data providers), providing a complete representation of the city's status, while simultaneously eliminating vertical data and application silos. The horizontal platform will operate as a standalone tool for creating, developing, and managing smart cities. It will be a plug-and-play solution for organizations such as municipalities, regions, and government agencies that want to develop smart cities.

It is an innovative intervention that includes the following features: 

• Creating a horizontal view of the city - in real-time.
• Decision-making based on "smart data."
• Creating a new "intelligent" service in a short period.
• Allow private entities and citizens to use city data in order to strengthen local communities and the economy. \
• The platform will support the publication of "smart" data to private entities and citizens.
• The platform will be built with "open-source" technologies, enabling our country to adopt an "open" smart city strategy, which acts as a catalyst for promoting collaboration and innovation. 

Mobics participates in the development of the vertical Smart and Green Museum solution along with partners ZARIFOPOULOS S.A., C2H Ltd., and the Benaki Museum as a user.
