Horizon Europe Missions

Contributions to the Cancer Mission (patient data), Smart Cities Mission (municipal health), and Climate Mission (energy infrastructure monitoring via Smart Shielding).

AI at NEWCO

Blockchain + AI: a trust stack for Europe

We combine verifiable blockchain records with AI-powered intelligence to create systems that don't just record events — they anticipate, detect, and explain them. Built for EU AI Act compliance from day one.

Anomaly detection in IoT data streams

Machine learning models monitor real-time sensor data from Smart Shielding deployments, detecting statistically abnormal access patterns before they escalate into reportable NIS2 incidents.

Predictive health analytics

AI models trained on anonymised, blockchain-secured patient datasets identify deterioration patterns in chronically ill patients — supporting COMFORTage research goals and EHDS interoperability.

Document fraud detection

Neural classifiers flag suspicious document submissions to the Blockchain Certificates platform before cryptographic hashing — preventing corrupt records and strengthening trust for eIDAS 2.0 compliance.

Explainable AI audit trails

All AI inference decisions in NEWCO systems are written as immutable blockchain records, providing the transparency, traceability, and human oversight required by the EU AI Act.
