What they do

Their core work

ITML is a Greek technology SME that builds AI, machine learning, and data analytics platforms for industrial applications — particularly in cybersecurity, smart transport, and manufacturing. They develop software solutions that process large-scale data streams (big data, IoT, edge-to-cloud) and turn them into actionable intelligence for sectors like maritime, automotive, and smart cities. Their work spans the full stack from edge computing and IoT device security to cloud-based decision support systems, with a strong emphasis on making complex AI tools usable for industry.

Core expertise

What they specialise in

AI and Machine Learning for Industryprimary
7 projects

Central to projects including AI4DI, TEACHING, MARVEL, COLLABS, IMOCO4.E, SHOW, and TT — all involving ML-driven analytics for industrial or urban systems.

Cybersecurity and Data Protectionprimary
4 projects

THREAT-ARREST (cyber training), C4IIoT (IIoT security), COLLABS (manufacturing cyber-resilience), and SENTINEL (SME data protection) — where ITML served as coordinator.

Big Data and Cloud-Edge Computingprimary
5 projects

I-BiDaaS (self-service big data), MARVEL (edge-fog-cloud analytics), TEACHING (edge computing), COLLABS (edge-to-cloud security), and IMOCO4.E (edge-to-cloud for motion control).

Smart Mobility and Transportsecondary
3 projects

TT (transport digitalization and CO2 reduction), SHOW (shared autonomous mobility, MaaS), and SmartShip (maritime fuel efficiency and emissions).

Smart Cities and Urban Analyticsemerging
2 projects

MARVEL (multimodal data analytics for smart cities) and SHOW (urban shared mobility and public transport) signal a growing urban focus.

Evolution & trajectory

How they've shifted over time

Early focus
Big data and transport analytics
Recent focus
AI-driven cybersecurity and edge computing

ITML's early H2020 work (2017–2019) centered on transport digitalization, big data platforms, and maritime optimization — projects like TT, I-BiDaaS, and SmartShip focused on making sense of large datasets in logistics and shipping. From 2020 onward, the company shifted decisively toward cybersecurity (COLLABS, SENTINEL, C4IIoT), autonomous mobility (SHOW), and AI-driven edge computing for smart cities (MARVEL, TEACHING). The trajectory shows a clear move from general data analytics toward applied AI with a security layer — reflecting market demand for trustworthy, secure intelligent systems.

ITML is converging on secure AI systems for cities and industry — expect them to target projects combining edge AI, cybersecurity, and digital twins in smart urban or manufacturing environments.

Collaboration profile

How they like to work

Role: active_partnerReach: European27 countries collaborated

ITML operates almost exclusively as a consortium partner (12 of 13 projects), joining large multi-partner networks rather than leading them. With 298 unique partners across 27 countries, they are a well-connected hub that brings software and AI capabilities into diverse consortia. Their single coordinator role (SENTINEL, their largest-funded project at EUR 555K) suggests they are building leadership capacity, but their primary value proposition is as a reliable technical contributor who integrates into established teams.

ITML has collaborated with 298 distinct partners across 27 countries, making them one of the more broadly connected Greek SMEs in H2020. Their reach spans most of the EU, with no obvious geographic concentration beyond their home base in Athens.

Why partner with them

What sets them apart

ITML sits at a rare intersection: they combine AI/ML platform development with deep cybersecurity expertise, specifically for industrial and IoT environments. While many SMEs specialize in either AI or security, ITML can deliver both within a single project — as demonstrated in COLLABS (ML + edge-to-cloud security for manufacturing) and C4IIoT (cyber protection for industrial IoT). For consortium builders, this dual capability means one partner covering two critical work packages, reducing coordination overhead.

Notable projects

Highlights from their portfolio

  • SENTINEL
    ITML's only coordinator role and second-highest funding (EUR 555K) — focused on making GDPR compliance and cybersecurity accessible to smaller enterprises across Europe.
  • COLLABS
    Their largest single project budget (EUR 647K), combining machine learning, blockchain, and edge-to-cloud security for resilient manufacturing systems.
  • MARVEL
    Positions ITML in the smart cities space with multimodal extreme-scale data analytics — their most recent and forward-looking project direction.
