Greek maritime ICT company providing digital infrastructure, cybersecurity, and AI-driven safety solutions for shipping and transport.
Their core work
SEABILITY is a Greek SME specializing in maritime and transport ICT solutions, with a strong focus on shipping, port operations, and connected transport systems. They provide digital communication infrastructure, cybersecurity services, and data-driven applications for the maritime logistics sector. Their work spans from port digitalization and autonomous vessel support to maritime safety systems including evacuation planning and life-saving appliance design. They also contribute ICT architecture expertise to connected road transport and electric vehicle deployment projects.
What they specialise in
Contributed to SafePASS on next-generation life-saving appliances, dynamic evacuation routing, and augmented reality for passenger ships.
Worked on cyber ranges and maritime cybersecurity in Cyber-MAR, and cyber-security and data privacy in ICT4CART.
Provided ICT infrastructure expertise in ICT4CART (road transport) and CLUSTERS 2.0 (logistics networks).
ELVITEN focused on field demonstrations and real usage data for electric L-category vehicles, including market uptake analysis.
SafePASS involved AI-driven crowd simulations, indoor localization, and augmented reality for ship evacuation scenarios.
How they've shifted over time
SEABILITY's early H2020 work (2017-2018) centered on logistics networks, electric vehicle deployment, and port modernization — essentially digitizing existing transport infrastructure. From 2019 onward, their focus shifted decisively toward maritime-specific challenges: cybersecurity for shipping, autonomous vessel operations, and advanced safety systems using AI and augmented reality. This evolution shows a company that started as a general transport ICT provider and progressively specialized in the maritime digital domain.
SEABILITY is converging on smart maritime systems — expect them to pursue autonomous shipping, maritime cyber resilience, and AI-assisted safety in future projects.
How they like to work
SEABILITY operates exclusively as a consortium participant, never as coordinator, which is typical for a specialized SME contributing focused technical expertise to larger initiatives. With 140 unique partners across 17 countries in just 7 projects, they work in large consortia (averaging 20 partners per project) and have built an extensive European network. This broad partner base suggests they are valued as a reliable technical contributor that integrates well into diverse teams rather than anchoring projects themselves.
Extensive network of 140 unique partners across 17 countries, built through participation in large EU consortia. Based in Athens with a pan-European reach, reflecting the international nature of maritime transport and logistics.
What sets them apart
SEABILITY sits at the intersection of maritime operations and digital technology — a combination that is relatively rare among Greek SMEs in H2020. Their portfolio covers the full maritime digital stack from port systems and vessel automation to onboard safety and cybersecurity. For consortium builders, they offer a single partner that understands both the shipping domain and the ICT infrastructure needed to modernize it.
Highlights from their portfolio
- MOSESTheir most recent and highest-funded project (EUR 232,500), focused on automated vessels and supply chain optimization for short sea shipping — aligns with their maritime specialization trajectory.
- SafePASSCombines AI, augmented reality, and crowd simulation for ship evacuation — shows SEABILITY's capability to work on safety-critical maritime systems with advanced technology.
- Cyber-MARAddresses the growing threat of maritime cybersecurity with cyber range exercises — positions SEABILITY in a high-demand niche as shipping digitalization accelerates.
