On 15 September, CYRIC took part in the INVESTech COVE Summer School organised by Center for Social Innovation - CSI , under the theme ‘’ Promoting entrepreneurship of women in ICT’’. The activity was addressed to female learners aged 16 and above, with the aim of encouraging them to explore studies and career paths in ICT.

CYRIC was represented by Panayiota Demosthenous and Sofia Tosounova, were as part of the session “Technology Solving Real-World Problems,” Panayiota presented examples of how an initial problem can be developed into an idea, a prototype and eventually a solution with market potential.

The presentation drew on practical CYRIC examples, including applications related to food safety and health, linking technological development with real needs and entrepreneurial opportunities. The session also included a practical demonstration of fluorescence spectroscopy, showing how the immobilisation of an analyte on a sensor surface and its interaction with fluorescently labelled antibodies can produce measurable changes in fluorescence intensity.

A prototype rarely works perfectly the first time.

Components may not communicate correctly. Measurements can be unstable. Power consumption may be too high. A design that works in the laboratory may behave differently in the field.

Engineers must also balance performance, size, cost, reliability, manufacturing and usability.
This requires repeated testing, troubleshooting and redesign.

At CYRIC, prototyping is an iterative process that transforms early concepts into functional systems. The setbacks are not separate from engineering progress—they provide the information needed to build a better solution.

24/09/2026

Cyric is proud to support the BridgeSTEAM initiative through the Code4Europe project, contributing to efforts that encourage more girls to engage with STEAM, digital skills and future career opportunities.
The two-day programme will combine hands-on programming activities, career orientation, inspiring female role models, teamwork and exploration of the Sustainable Development Goals.
The programme will take place on 10–11 October 2026, from 09:00–18:00, at PwC in Limassol.

Registrations are open until 30 September 2026. More information and registration:

With the ever-changing climate, organisms, including insects learn to adapt and thrive.

It is becoming an issue for countries around the world.

Within the framework of project Agro-Well project , CYRIC is working to develop alongside partners, smart traps for intelligent insect monitoring in open-field and greenhouse environments.

Using sensors, connected technologies and AI-supported image analysis, the system can help identify pest presence and provide farmers with more timely information for decision-making.

A photonic sensor alone is not a complete solution. It requires control electronics, signal processing, software, mechanical integration, power management and a reliable method for collecting and analysing samples.

Our organisation is deeply invested in all these different areas, helping transform advanced photonic technologies into integrated monitoring instruments.

This system-level engineering is essential. A promising sensor must eventually become a device that can be operated, tested and validated outside a specialised laboratory.

Innovation happens not only inside the sensor, but also through everything required to make it usable.

From 7–9 September, CYRIC participated in the Forum on Vocational Excellence 2026 in Graz, which welcomed more than 400 participants from over 50 countries. The Forum brought together the CoVE community for keynote presentations, discussions, workshops and study visits focused on vocational excellence, dual education, regional competitiveness, digital learning, project sustainability and stronger links between education and industry.

Beyond the programme itself, one question stood out: what makes vocational excellence last? As the first generation of CoVE projects approaches the end of EU funding, the focus is increasingly shifting from delivering project activities to building partnerships, skills ecosystems and learning models that can continue to evolve. With AI reshaping tasks and career pathways, preparing people for one specific job is no longer enough. For Cyric, through its involvement in the INVESTech COVE project, this reinforces the importance of adaptability, lifelong learning and stronger connections between digital skills, vocational education, industry and the changing needs of our regions..

CYRIC is participating in ISPTS 2026 in Bologna, where Maria Moyseos is presenting research from the EU-funded NIAGARA and UrbaQuantum projects.

The work focuses on an integrated pre-concentration system for waterborne bacterial monitoring, using Helicobacter pylori as a preliminary validation target.

This research supports improved approaches to waterborne pathogen detection, environmental monitoring and water quality assessment.

Innovation becomes meaningful when it moves beyond the laboratory and into real operating conditions.

This robotic field platform is being used within the RE-GreenVOCs project, supporting the autonomous collection of soil samples towards a more sustainable agriculture. Its design brings together mobility, sensing, automation and control in a system built to operate directly in cultivated environments.

Field testing is an essential step in understanding how research solutions perform under real conditions—and how they can be further improved before wider deployment.

This week, we are at the NTN Forum’s Colloquium & General Assembly at ESA - European Space Agency ESTEC, demonstrating how Cyprus is contributing to the development and adoption of Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN).

A key part of that contribution is our SAT IoT Hub — developed and built in Cyprus for direct-to-satellite IoT connectivity.

Its first version was developed as one of the early commercially available pre-standard NTN Direct-to-Satellite (D2S) products. At the Forum, we are also presenting the roadmap towards SAT IoT Hub v2, based on 3GPP standards and designed to support multi-constellation connectivity.

This technology is already moving beyond development into real application scenarios. Through the GroundWork project, NTN connectivity is being explored for low-power IoT sensing in remote agricultural areas, including the monitoring of soil, environmental conditions and animals.

With the support of ESA - European Space Agency and the Cyprus Space Office , we are continuing to develop satellite IoT technology locally while connecting it to the wider European space and telecommunications ecosystem.

Antonis Hadjiantonis is at ESA ESTEC representing CYRIC and Cyprus, presenting our technology, roadmap and ongoing work in NTN.
