CATALINK LIMITED

Their core work

CATALINK is a Cypriot technology SME specializing in data analytics, IoT platforms, and AI/machine learning solutions applied across multiple domains. They build intelligent software systems — from big-data frameworks for environmental monitoring to deep learning tools for healthcare decision support. Their technical contributions span autonomous mobility, security intelligence, cyber-physical systems, and digital health, consistently serving as the data integration and analytics layer within large EU consortia.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

CATALINK entered H2020 in 2019 with projects centered on autonomous mobility (Trustonomy) and security intelligence (PREVISION), establishing their core in AI and data analytics for transport and security. From 2021 onward, they pivoted strongly toward health informatics (ALAMEDA — brain diseases, ML diagnostics) and environmental data platforms (SILVANUS — wildfire management, 3D forest models). Their most recent project, TULIPS (2022), signals a further expansion into green aviation and hydrogen infrastructure, showing a clear trajectory from general AI/data work toward domain-specific applications with societal impact.

CATALINK is moving from horizontal AI/data capabilities toward vertical applications in health, environment, and sustainable aviation — expect them to deepen in green transition and clinical AI.

How they like to work

CATALINK operates exclusively as a consortium participant, never as coordinator, which is typical for a specialized technology SME providing data and AI components to larger projects. With 158 unique partners across 30 countries from just 6 projects, they consistently join large-scale consortia (averaging 26+ partners per project). This broad network suggests they are a flexible, easy-to-integrate technical partner rather than a domain leader — valuable for consortium builders who need reliable AI/data expertise without competition for project leadership.

Remarkably wide network for a small company: 158 unique partners across 30 countries from only 6 projects, indicating participation in very large pan-European consortia. Based in Cyprus, their partnerships span the full EU geography with no apparent regional concentration.

What sets them apart

CATALINK's main differentiator is their ability to apply the same AI and data analytics toolkit across very different domains — from brain disease diagnostics to wildfire management to airport sustainability. This cross-domain versatility, combined with their SME agility and track record of reliable delivery in large consortia, makes them an attractive partner when a project needs practical ML/IoT implementation without the overhead of a large IT firm. Their Cyprus base also offers geographic diversity for consortium composition requirements.

Highlights from their portfolio

• SILVANUS
  Their largest funded project (EUR 512,750), applying big-data frameworks and 3D modeling to wildfire management — an unusual and high-impact application domain.
• ALAMEDA
  Bridges digital tech with clinical neuroscience, using ML for early diagnosis of Parkinson's, MS, and Stroke — their clearest health-sector entry point.
• TULIPS
  Their most recent and forward-looking project, connecting them to green hydrogen, sustainable aviation fuel, and zero-emission airport operations across Europe.
