Israeli software SME building low-cost IoT monitoring systems for elderly care and energy management, with H2020 experience as both coordinator and partner.
Pisga is an Israeli software and communications SME that applies embedded systems, IoT connectivity, and real-time data processing to applied engineering challenges. In the energy domain they contributed software and communication components to an energy storage project focused on matching supply with demand. They then pivoted to develop their own product concept — a non-invasive, privacy-preserving health monitoring system for elderly people living at home, which they coordinated through an EU feasibility grant. Their value proposition is building low-cost, unobtrusive connected systems that run continuously without requiring user interaction.
Pisga coordinated HomeSafe (2019), a Phase 1 SME Instrument project to develop a non-invasive, ultra-low-cost 24/7 health monitoring system for the elderly — indicating proprietary product development in this space.
Pisga participated in EnergyKeeper (2017–2019), an RIA project focused on optimal energy placement and storage, where they contributed software and communication expertise to a multi-country consortium.
Both projects — energy storage coordination and continuous elderly health monitoring — depend on real-time data transmission and embedded software, which aligns with the company's registered name and apparent core capability.
HomeSafe represents Pisga's move into health tech, specifically the use of passive sensors for elderly monitoring without wearables or active user engagement.
Pisga entered H2020 as a specialist partner in an energy-sector RIA project (2017–2019), contributing software and communication capabilities to a consortium working on energy storage optimization. By 2019 they had repositioned themselves as a product developer in digital health, coordinating their own SME Instrument Phase 1 feasibility study for elderly home monitoring. With only two projects and no keyword data available, the trajectory is directional but not firmly established — the shift from energy partner to health coordinator suggests they are searching for a product-led business model rather than deepening a single technical domain.
Pisga appears to be transitioning from sector-agnostic software contracting toward owning a specific product in elderly digital health — a future collaboration would most likely fit in health-tech IoT, remote monitoring, or smart-home integration.
Pisga has taken both roles available to a small company: joining a larger RIA consortium as a technical partner and coordinating a focused SME feasibility study independently. Their consortium footprint is modest — 10 partners across 5 countries over two projects — suggesting they operate in small, purpose-built teams rather than large framework consortia. For a potential partner, this means direct working relationships and clear task ownership, but limited evidence of sustained, repeat collaboration with specific organizations.
Pisga has worked with 10 distinct partners across 5 countries, a lean but genuinely international footprint for a two-project SME. As an Israeli company active in H2020, their European connections span at least five member or associated states, which is notable for a firm of this size.
Pisga is one of relatively few Israeli software SMEs with hands-on H2020 participation in both the energy and health sectors, giving them practical knowledge of EU funding processes and consortium dynamics that purely domestic Israeli firms lack. Their HomeSafe concept — non-invasive, privacy-preserving, ultra-low-cost continuous monitoring — occupies a specific gap between expensive clinical-grade devices and consumer wellness gadgets. For a consortium needing an Israeli software partner with applied IoT experience and EU project track record, Pisga is a rare find at the SME scale.
