Both EuPOLIS and HEART focus on blue-green urban interventions and their measurable effects on citizen health and well-being.
ENPLUS
Serbian SME linking urban nature-based solutions to citizen health outcomes through ICT engagement tools and AI-based impact monitoring.
Their core work
ENPLUS is a Belgrade-based private company specialising in the intersection of urban planning, digital engagement tools, and public health outcomes. Their work centers on helping cities design and evaluate nature-based solutions — green and blue urban infrastructure — by measuring how these interventions affect citizen health and well-being. They bring ICT-driven participatory methods into project delivery, including serious games and augmented reality to engage residents in planning processes. Across both their H2020 projects, they contribute to the full chain from planning methodology to evidence-based impact assessment.
What they specialise in
EuPOLIS involves advanced ICT including serious games and augmented reality specifically for engaging urban residents in planning decisions.
HEART explicitly targets validating the health impact of blue-green interventions in both clinical and non-clinical settings, while EuPOLIS includes citizen observatories for monitoring outcomes.
HEART introduced AI-based monitoring as a keyword, signalling a newer technical capability being developed alongside the participatory planning work.
HEART's keyword set includes behavioural change and evidence-based policy making, positioning ENPLUS at the science-to-policy translation layer.
How they've shifted over time
ENPLUS entered H2020 through urban planning methodology and participatory tools — their early focus was on goals-driven planning frameworks, citizen observatories, and immersive ICT for community engagement. By their second project, the emphasis shifted downstream: from how citizens participate in planning to what health outcomes result from built interventions, with validation in clinical and non-clinical settings and AI-based monitoring taking centre stage. The trajectory is clearly from planning enablement toward health impact measurement and behavioural evidence — a maturation from design-side tools toward outcome-side analytics.
ENPLUS is moving toward data-driven health outcome validation for nature-based urban interventions, making them an increasingly relevant partner for projects needing the bridge between city planning and public health evidence.
How they like to work
ENPLUS participates exclusively as a consortium partner — they have never coordinated an H2020 project — which suggests they operate as a specialist contributor rather than a project driver. Their two projects sit in large, multi-country consortia (37 unique partners across 15 countries), indicating comfort working within complex collaborative structures. This profile points to an organisation that contributes a defined technical or methodological role within larger teams rather than building or managing them.
ENPLUS has built a network of 37 unique consortium partners across 15 countries from just two projects — a notably wide reach for a small Serbian SME. Their partnerships span both the environment and health sectors, reflecting the cross-disciplinary nature of their urban well-being work.
What sets them apart
ENPLUS occupies an unusual niche for a Serbian SME: they combine urban planning methodology, participatory digital tools, and public health impact assessment in a single organisational profile, which is rare outside large research institutes. Their location in Serbia gives consortia access to a non-EU but Horizon-eligible partner, which can be strategically useful for widening participation requirements. For project coordinators building teams around urban resilience or green city transitions, ENPLUS offers both the engagement-side expertise (ICT, citizen observatories) and the outcomes-side credibility (clinical validation, AI monitoring).
Highlights from their portfolio
- EuPOLISThe larger of the two projects (€424,200) and the broadest in scope — combining a Goals Driven Planning Matrix with citizen observatories and immersive ICT tools into an integrated nature-based urban planning methodology.
- HEARTSignals ENPLUS's shift into clinical and AI-based health validation, placing them at the more rigorous, evidence-facing end of the nature-based solutions space.
