CLOUD SOFTWARE GROUP HELLAS MONOPROSOPI ETAIRIA PERIORISMENIS EVTHINIS

Their core work

Cloud Software Group Greece is a software company based in Patras specializing in cloud-native networking, virtualization, and telecom infrastructure software. Their H2020 work spans cloud-edge convergence, cybersecurity solutions for small businesses, and intelligent 5G network management — indicating deep competence in software-defined networking and distributed systems. They contribute software engineering and platform development expertise to large European ICT and security research consortia.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

Their early H2020 work (2015-2017) centered on cloud-edge convergence and general-purpose cybersecurity — broad ICT infrastructure topics without sharp specialization. By 2019, the focus narrowed significantly toward 5G network slicing, zero-touch automation, and machine learning for distributed network orchestration, as seen in MonB5G. This reflects a clear trajectory from general cloud/virtualization toward intelligent, autonomous telecom infrastructure management.

They are moving toward autonomous, ML-powered telecom network orchestration — a partner likely interested in future 6G, intent-based networking, or AI-for-networks projects.

How they like to work

Always a participant, never a coordinator — they join consortia as a technology contributor rather than a project leader. With 41 unique partners across just 3 projects, they operate in large consortia (averaging ~14 partners per project), which is typical for major EU ICT research actions. This suggests they are a reliable technical contributor comfortable integrating into complex multi-partner setups.

Despite only 3 projects, they have built a broad network of 41 unique partners across 17 countries, reflecting engagement in large pan-European ICT consortia with wide geographic spread.

What sets them apart

As a private software company based in Patras — home to one of Greece's strongest ICT ecosystems around the University of Patras — they bring commercial software development discipline to research consortia, bridging the gap between academic prototypes and deployable products. Their progression from general cloud platforms to specialized 5G intelligence makes them a practical partner for projects needing software implementation capacity in telecom and network automation. For consortium builders, they offer a Greek private-sector partner with genuine distributed systems engineering capability, not just consultancy.

Highlights from their portfolio

• SUPERFLUIDITY
  Largest single EC contribution (EUR 709,375) and their entry into cloud-edge convergence research — a foundational project for their later 5G work.
• MonB5G
  Their most recent and technically ambitious project, combining 5G network slicing with machine learning and zero-touch automation — signals their current strategic direction.
• SMESEC
  A departure from their telecom focus into cybersecurity for SMEs, demonstrating versatility across the ICT-security boundary.
