ZeroW (2022-2025) involves KONNECTA in building data spaces and data-driven tools for food supply chain transparency and waste reduction.
KONNECTA SYSTEMS IKE
Greek tech SME delivering data-driven systems for food supply chains and BIM-based energy-efficient building solutions.
Their core work
KONNECTA SYSTEMS is a Greek technology SME that develops data-driven systems and digital integration solutions for two distinct domains: food supply chain management and smart built environments. In the ZeroW project they contribute digital tools around data spaces and data-driven applications to reduce food waste across the supply chain. In PROBONO they work on building information modeling (BIM), energy performance analytics, and building-integrated photovoltaics for energy-efficient construction. Their name and project portfolio suggest a company whose core value is connecting systems — whether that means food chain actors sharing data or buildings integrated into smart urban energy grids.
What they specialise in
PROBONO (2022-2026) positions KONNECTA in BIM-based approaches for energy-efficient buildings and green neighbourhood integration.
PROBONO keywords explicitly include energy performance of buildings and building-integrated photovoltaics as part of KONNECTA's scope.
ZeroW keywords include policy recommendations and just transition, suggesting KONNECTA contributes data analysis that feeds into policy-facing outputs.
How they've shifted over time
Both of KONNECTA's H2020 projects began in 2022, meaning there is no genuine temporal evolution visible in this dataset — the keyword split reflects two concurrent projects, not a change over time. Their portfolio shows a company operating across two parallel tracks simultaneously: digital data infrastructure for food systems (ZeroW) and smart building technologies (PROBONO). If anything, the PROBONO project (which runs one year longer and carries higher funding) may represent a deeper or more established engagement, but this cannot be confirmed from the available data alone.
KONNECTA appears to be expanding its digital systems expertise into the built environment sector, with PROBONO representing both higher funding and a longer project horizon than their food-sector work.
How they like to work
KONNECTA participates exclusively as a consortium partner — they have never coordinated an H2020 project. Despite only two projects, they have accumulated 104 unique partners across 22 countries, which reflects the large Innovation Action consortia they join rather than a dense personal network. This profile suggests a company that positions itself as a specialist technical contributor, brought in for a specific capability, rather than a consortium builder or lead integrator.
KONNECTA has reached 104 unique partners across 22 countries through just two projects, reflecting the scale of the Innovation Actions they have joined. There is no evidence of repeated partnerships or a specific geographic cluster beyond their Greek base.
What sets them apart
KONNECTA occupies an unusual cross-sector position for a small Greek tech company: they are active in both the food systems digitalization space and the smart buildings/construction space within the same H2020 cycle. This dual-domain footprint suggests a systems integration capability that is sector-agnostic — valuable for consortia that need a technically flexible partner rather than a deep domain specialist. Their Kifisia base (greater Athens) also provides access to Greece's growing tech startup ecosystem.
Highlights from their portfolio
- PROBONOThe largest of KONNECTA's two projects (EUR 262,402, running to 2026) addresses BIM-based energy efficiency in buildings — a high-priority EU construction sector challenge — and runs one year longer than their food-sector project.
- ZeroWTackles zero food waste through data spaces and policy recommendations, placing KONNECTA at the intersection of digital infrastructure and food system transformation — a combination rare among Greek SMEs.
