What they do

Their core work

KON'KAT is a Greek construction and technical works company based in Marousi (Athens), operating in building construction, renovation, and industrial engineering. Within EU research projects, they contribute practical construction expertise to building energy renovation, prefabricated building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) systems, and BIM-based renovation workflows. Their role bridges the gap between laboratory-developed building technologies and real-world construction deployment, bringing industry-grade implementation knowledge to research consortia.

Core expertise

What they specialise in

Prefabricated and modular constructionprimary
1 project

PVadapt focused on prefabrication, recyclability, and modularity for cost-effective smart BIPV integration.

AEGIS project addressed big data value chains for public safety and personal security.

Evolution & trajectory

How they've shifted over time

Early focus
Digital security systems
Recent focus
Building renovation and smart BIPV

KON'KAT entered H2020 in 2017 with a digital/security project (AEGIS), then shifted decisively toward building energy performance from 2018 onward. Their two later projects — PVadapt and BIMERR — both focus on construction-sector innovation: smart building envelopes, modular prefabrication, and digitized renovation processes. This trajectory suggests the company aligned its R&D participation with its core construction business, moving from a general technology exploration phase to focused building decarbonization work.

KON'KAT is converging on digitized, modular building renovation — a growth area as the EU pushes its Renovation Wave, making them a relevant partner for future energy-efficiency-in-buildings projects.

Collaboration profile

How they like to work

Role: active_partnerReach: European16 countries collaborated

KON'KAT participates exclusively as a consortium partner, never as coordinator, which is typical for a construction industry player contributing applied expertise rather than leading research agendas. Despite only three projects, they have worked with 43 unique partners across 16 countries, indicating they operate in large, multi-national consortia. This profile suggests they are a reliable industry end-user partner who brings real-world deployment perspective to research teams.

KON'KAT has built a broad European network of 43 partners across 16 countries through just three projects, reflecting participation in large Innovation Action and Research consortia. Their network is pan-European with no apparent geographic concentration beyond their Greek home base.

Why partner with them

What sets them apart

As a large Greek construction company active in EU research, KON'KAT offers something many academic-heavy consortia lack: a real construction firm that can validate and pilot building technologies at scale. Their combination of hands-on construction capability with experience in BIM digitization and modular BIPV makes them a practical deployment partner. For consortium builders, they fill the essential "industry end-user" slot in building renovation and energy efficiency projects.

Notable projects

Highlights from their portfolio

  • BIMERR
    Largest funding share (EUR 437,300) and directly aligned with the EU Renovation Wave agenda — BIM-based tools for residential energy renovation.
  • PVadapt
    Combines construction prefabrication with solar energy (BIPV), addressing both cost reduction and circular design principles in building envelopes.

Analysis note: Profile is based on only 3 projects with limited keyword data. The company name (construction, commercial, industrial, and shipping enterprises) and project participation suggest a diversified construction group, but without a website or additional public information, the precise scope of their operations cannot be verified. The AEGIS project (public safety/big data) is thematically disconnected from their construction focus, which may indicate either broad corporate interests or a division-level participation that is not visible from the data alone.
