Israeli IT company specializing in secure cloud infrastructure, privacy-preserving data sharing, and data economy platforms for European consortia.
EMC Israel Advanced Information Technologies is an Israeli private technology company specializing in cloud infrastructure, data security, and data economy platforms. Their work spans the design and implementation of secure, federated cloud environments — including virtualization, container management, and serverless architectures — as well as data marketplace and data-sharing frameworks that enable compliant, trustworthy exchange of data across organizations. They contribute industrial IT expertise to European research consortia, bridging enterprise-grade cloud engineering with emerging standards for privacy-preserving data ecosystems. Their involvement in both a hybrid cloud security project and a trusted data-sharing space project suggests they operate at the intersection of cloud infrastructure and data governance.
ATMOSPHERE project (2017–2019) focused on trustworthy, hybrid cloud ecosystems including platform-as-a-service, federated virtual networks, container management, and serverless applications.
TRUSTS project (2020–2022) addressed trusted secure data sharing spaces, covering data economy, interoperability, business models, and the digital single market.
TRUSTS project keywords include artificial intelligence, machine learning, big data, and analytics, suggesting applied AI capabilities within data platform contexts.
Privacy and security appear as keywords in both ATMOSPHERE and TRUSTS, indicating this is a consistent cross-project competency rather than a one-off contribution.
In their early H2020 work (2017–2019), the focus was firmly on cloud infrastructure engineering — hybrid systems, virtualization, federated virtual networks, container management, and platform-as-a-service — with security and privacy treated as infrastructure-level properties. By 2020–2022, the emphasis shifted toward data economy and governance: data markets, interoperability, business models for data sharing, AI/ML, and digital single market compliance. The core thread of privacy and security persists across both periods, but the application context moved from cloud plumbing toward data-layer services and economic frameworks for data exchange.
They are moving from cloud infrastructure engineering toward data economy platforms — a trajectory that positions them well for European data spaces (GAIA-X, EU Data Act) and AI governance projects.
EMC Israel has participated exclusively as a consortium partner in both H2020 projects, never as coordinator, which suggests they contribute specialist industrial expertise rather than leading research agendas. Both projects were mid-to-large consortia, and with 29 unique partners across 13 countries in just two projects, they engage in broad, diverse European partnerships rather than repeated collaborations with the same teams. This pattern indicates a company comfortable operating as a technical contributor inside complex multi-partner consortia.
Despite only two projects, EMC Israel has built a network of 29 unique consortium partners spanning 13 countries — an unusually broad reach for such a small project portfolio. Their collaborations are European-facing, consistent with Israeli participation in H2020 under the association agreement.
EMC Israel brings Israeli enterprise IT industry experience into European research consortia — a relatively rare profile in H2020 ICT projects, where Israeli private companies tend to be either deep-tech startups or large multinationals. Their consistent focus on privacy and security across both cloud infrastructure and data economy projects makes them a credible contributor to projects that need both technical depth and regulatory awareness. For consortium builders, they offer a non-EU industrial partner with demonstrated ability to work within European data governance frameworks.
