ANYWI TECHNOLOGY BV

Their core work

ANYWI Technology is a Dutch SME specializing in connectivity, interoperability, and embedded computing solutions for autonomous systems — particularly drones and automated vehicles. They develop technology that enables different hardware and software components to work together reliably in safety-critical environments. Their work spans wireless communication architectures, sensor integration, and distributed AI systems, focusing on making autonomous platforms trustworthy enough for real-world deployment.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

ANYWI started with hardware-oriented work — semiconductor components, sensors, and embedded computing architectures for automated driving (PRYSTINE, 2018). Over time, their focus shifted upward in the stack toward software-level concerns: trustable AI, cross-domain interoperability, and system resilience. By their most recent project (DAIS, 2021), the emphasis is squarely on distributed intelligence, reliability, and reusability across domains rather than on specific hardware components.

ANYWI is moving from hardware-level embedded systems toward higher-level distributed AI and cross-domain interoperability, positioning them for work on trustworthy autonomous systems across multiple industries.

How they like to work

ANYWI operates exclusively as a participant in large Research and Innovation Action (RIA) consortia — they have never coordinated a project. With 185 unique partners across 21 countries in just 4 projects, they work within very large multi-national consortia (typical ECSEL/KDT-style projects with 40-60 partners each). This suggests they bring a specific technical contribution to large ecosystem efforts rather than driving project direction.

Despite only 4 projects, ANYWI has collaborated with 185 unique partners across 21 countries — a reflection of the very large ECSEL-type consortia they participate in. Their network spans most of Europe, giving them broad exposure to automotive and aerospace industry players.

What sets them apart

ANYWI sits at the intersection of connectivity and autonomous systems — a niche that spans both drones and automated vehicles. As a small Dutch SME, they bring focused interoperability expertise to large industrial consortia dominated by major automotive and semiconductor players. Their consistent presence across ECSEL/KDT projects signals they are a trusted specialist that large companies repeatedly invite into their consortia.

Highlights from their portfolio

• COMP4DRONES
  A major European framework project for autonomous drone technologies, addressing the full stack from composition to safety and interoperability.
• PRYSTINE
  Large-scale ECSEL project on programmable systems for automated driving — ANYWI's entry point into the autonomous vehicle ecosystem with their highest single-project funding (EUR 138,751).
• DAIS
  Represents ANYWI's evolution toward distributed AI and trustability — their most forward-looking project addressing cross-domain AI reusability.
