Romanian AI and IoT software SME specializing in security analytics, cybersecurity, and cross-domain data fusion platforms across 41 H2020 projects.
SIMAVI is a Romanian software SME that builds AI-powered visual analytics platforms, IoT data processing systems, and cybersecurity tools for large-scale European projects. Their core competence lies in developing software components that ingest, fuse, and visualize heterogeneous data streams — from sensor networks and surveillance feeds to health records and energy grid telemetry. They serve as a versatile technology integrator, delivering machine learning modules, blockchain-based audit systems, and user-facing dashboards across security, digital, health, and energy domains. With 41 H2020 projects, they are one of Romania's most active SMEs in EU research.
Dominant theme across RED-Alert, MAGNETO, CONNEXIONs, PREVISION, CREST, CC-DRIVER, BorderUAS, ENSURESEC, and Search and Rescue — covering crime prevention, counter-terrorism, border surveillance, and cybercrime.
Recurrent across sectors: deep learning in DeepHealth, AI-based evacuation in PALAEMON, malware detection via ML in SIMARGL, and AI for water management in NAIADES.
Coordinated EnergyShield for critical infrastructure protection; contributed to SPHINX (healthcare cybersecurity), ECHO (cybersecurity competence network), and SIMARGL (malware recognition).
IoT platforms in CREST, DEMETER (agriculture), FLEXIGRID (energy grids), and NAIADES (water utilities), consistently handling sensor data ingestion and processing.
Virtual coaching in vCare, health record interoperability in InteropEHRate, biomedical deep learning in DeepHealth, and elderly care in PROCare4Life.
Zero defect manufacturing in ZDMP, circular manufacturing in KYKLOS 4.0, energy-aware analytics in FACTLOG, and circular product-service systems in ReCiPSS.
In 2017-2019, SIMAVI focused heavily on AI and machine learning applied to smart energy grids (inteGRIDy), crime detection (RED-Alert, MAGNETO), and health rehabilitation (vCare), with co-creation and citizen engagement as recurring themes. From 2019 onward, their work shifted decisively toward IoT-enabled security platforms (CREST, BorderUAS), agriculture and food sector digitization (DEMETER), and manufacturing (ZDMP, KYKLOS 4.0) — showing a clear broadening from pure software analytics into sensor-driven, cross-domain IoT systems. The cybersecurity thread strengthened throughout, evolving from a supporting capability to a domain they now coordinate projects in.
SIMAVI is evolving from a pure AI/analytics software house into an IoT-and-security platform integrator, increasingly active in agriculture, manufacturing, and border security — expect them to anchor future projects combining sensor networks with AI-driven decision support.
SIMAVI overwhelmingly operates as a participant (37 of 41 projects), taking on well-defined software development work packages rather than leading entire consortia. Their 4 coordinator roles (RED-Alert, EnergyShield, BorderUAS) are all in security, suggesting they lead when the project aligns with their strongest domain. With 718 unique partners across 41 countries, they are a high-connectivity hub — a reliable, experienced technology partner that large consortia actively recruit for software integration tasks.
With 718 unique consortium partners spanning 41 countries, SIMAVI has one of the broadest collaboration networks among Romanian SMEs, reaching well beyond Central and Eastern Europe into Western European research hubs and industry clusters.
SIMAVI stands out as a rare Romanian SME that can deliver production-grade AI and IoT software across radically different domains — from border surveillance drones to elderly rehabilitation coaching to smart agriculture. Their ability to rapidly adapt their visual analytics and data fusion stack to new sectors makes them an unusually flexible technology partner. For consortium builders, they offer a proven track record of delivering on time across 41 projects, combined with the cost advantage of a Romanian SME and genuine technical depth in AI, cybersecurity, and IoT.
