AlongWave is the commercial brand of AlongRoute Data IKE, a Greek deep-tech company providing global marine-weather and ocean-condition intelligence for maritime applications. The company delivers forecasts, historical reconstructions and tailored intelligence on waves, winds and ocean currents through APIs, SFTP, standard data formats, interactive maps, visual products and specialised analyses. Its solutions are designed to integrate directly into existing maritime software and operational workflows, supporting voyage optimisation, fleet performance, marine risk, offshore operations, post-voyage analysis and other weather-dependent activities.

AlongWave develops its own multi-source marine intelligence and modelling stack, combining Earth Observation and satellite-derived data, in-situ ocean observations, oceanographic and geospatial expertise, ocean-state reconstruction, physics-aware AI, forecasting, validation and calibration. This enables the company to build a richer representation of marine conditions before translating it into operationally useful intelligence.

Earth Observation is a key component of this capability, helping strengthen the reconstruction, analysis and validation of ocean conditions, particularly where direct marine measurements are sparse. AlongWave translates space-derived environmental information into downstream marine-weather intelligence for real-world maritime use cases.

Its business model is primarily B2B, positioning AlongWave as a marine-weather intelligence layer beneath existing routing, optimisation, fleet-management and decision-support systems. Target users include voyage-optimisation and weather-routing platforms, fleet-performance and maritime-software providers, shipping and marine-risk applications, as well as offshore energy, ports, marine infrastructure, insurance and other weather-sensitive sectors. The company’s end-to-end approach allows customers to source the marine-weather intelligence, modelling, processing and delivery layer directly from AlongWave rather than assembling a fragmented multi-vendor solution.

AviSense develops AI and augmented reality tools that help people detect hidden hazards, anticipate risks and make safer decisions. We combine information from cameras, sensors and satellites into a clear, shared view, with timely alerts and visual guidance for operators and field teams.

Our mission is to make complex environments—such as cities, airports and industrial sites—safer and easier to manage. Our vision is a future where teams have the information they need to prevent incidents before they happen.

A spin-off of the University of Patras and Athena Research Center, AviSense combines strong research foundations with hands-on experience in AI, computer vision, sensor fusion and augmented reality. Through Horizon Europe projects, the ESA BIC Greece programme and real-world demonstrations, we translate advanced technology into practical tools that address operational needs.

Cloud Signals has developed a product bundle offering the transport network that connects the core net-work and the RAN (Radio Access Network) of the mobile network, services making use of the 5G stand-ards, and addressing 5G vertical markets (ubiquitous coverage, disaster relief, public safety require-ments, emergency response, remote sensor connectivity, broadcast service, etc.) as well as corresponding use cases. To support the broadest range of use cases, 5G needs to integrate within a comprehensive sys-tem of all available communication technologies, exploiting their strengths and values. Satellite networks are among the most mature communication technologies, having specific advantages in geographically distributed and dynamic networks. They provide highly efficient, effective, and expedient network deploy-ments, leveraging their intrinsic advantages in broadcasting capabilities, global coverage, reduced reliance on terrestrial infrastructure, and high security. Satellite networks are nowadays considered as part of the 5G use case deployments. Many use cases can be better and more rapidly served using an integrated 5G satellite-terrestrial network rather than relying on terrestrial-only solutions. These include providing com-munication services to remote areas and to rural and dense urban environments, like on-premises local networks, content distribution, content acquisition, highly distributed IoT networks, and private mobile and nomadic network deployments. Cloud Signals was founded by executives in the space and telecom industries and leverages the founders’ 20+ years of experience and resources to address innovative solu-tions and opportunities in satellite operations, telecommunication payloads, ESA, and EC projects, as well as the telecommunications markets in 4 continents.

Geosystems Hellas S.A. (GSH) is a Greek SME based in Athens, specializing in geospatial software, remote sensing, Earth Observation, data analysis, and AI. The company provides advanced solutions for safety, security, critical infrastructure, the built environment, and climate change.With over 40 employees and offices in Athens and Crete, GSH is an Authorized Diamond Reseller and consultant of Hexagon Safety, Infrastructure & Geospatial and Hexagon Airborne in Greece and Cyprus. The company also holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 27001:2023, ISO 22301:2019,ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 37001:2016 certifications, as well as National, EU, and NATO security clearance, including a Facility Electronic Security Certificate classified as NATIONAL SECRET, NATO SECRET, and EU SECRET.

The Hellenic Centre for Marine Research (HCMR) is Greece’s leading public research organisation for marine and aquatic sciences, conducting multidisciplinary research across oceanography, marine biology, fisheries, aquaculture, biodiversity and environmental monitoring. Within the space ecosystem, HCMR is an important user and provider of Earth Observation–enabled services, combining satellite data with in-situ measurements, numerical modelling and marine information systems to monitor the Mediterranean and Greek seas. Its activities support applications such as ocean-state forecasting, coastal and marine environmental assessment, climate-change monitoring, ecosystem management, maritime safety and sustainable use of marine resources, making HCMR a key interface between space-based observations and operational marine science in Greece.

The Marine Remote Sensing Group (MRSG) at the University of the Aegean conducts research for the exploration, analysis, and visualisation of satellite and UAV data in the coastal environment. It combines state-of-the-art algorithms and in situ measurements to develop methods, technologies, and products for the visual representation of marine geospatial information. The group has expertise in disciplines of marine remote sensing, including oil spill detection, oceanic phenomena identification, seagrass mapping, coastal bathymetry, and coastline detection.

Satways Ltd. is a privately held organisation based in Athens, Greece, with annexes in Patras and Volos, and a presence in Germany. The company is developing mission-critical C3I/C4I, situational-awareness, decision-support and advanced sensing solutions for defence, public safety, civil protection, smart cities and critical infrastructure protection.

For the space domain, Satways acts primarily as a downstream and system-integration technology provider, transforming satellite-enabled services and heterogeneous sensor information into actionable operational intelligence. Its ENGAGE platform can integrate Earth Observation products, satellite communications, terrestrial and maritime sensors, unmanned platforms, field personnel and external information services into a unified Common Operational Picture supporting mission planning, incident management, alerting, resource coordination and operational decision-making.

Satways capabilities are particularly relevant to GOVSATCOM and resilient communications, Copernicus and Earth Observation exploitation, disaster and emergency management, maritime and border surveillance, critical infrastructure monitoring, multi-domain situational awareness and space-enabled defence applications. The company can also combine space-derived information with its own passive sensing technologies, including seismic sensors, Distributed Acoustic Sensing and underwater acoustic systems, enabling complementary space–air–ground–sea surveillance architectures.

Through its participation in European collaborative R&D and defence programmes, Satways is well positioned to contribute to IRIS²/GOVSATCOM-enabled services, secure and resilient mission communications, EO-based decision support, multi-sensor data fusion, AI-assisted operational awareness and downstream space applications for security and defence.
