Research and Innovation Matchmaking Event 2026
Cyprus, Greece and Czechia

As in.mat-Lab, we are delighted to announce our participation in a two-day Research and Innovation Matchmaking Event, that took place in Athens, Greece, on 8-9 June 2026.
The European Office of Cyprus (EOC), as a member of EEN Cyprus, in cooperation with EEN Hellas and EEN Czechia, invited academics, researchers, innovators and entrepreneurs to participate.
The event was designed for universities and research organizations, as well as companies, especially SMEs and startups, and innovation multipliers wishing to connect, explore synergies and build strong partnerships for current and upcoming opportunities under Horizon Europe, Digital Europe, CERV, Creative Europe, and other relevant EU programs.
The pitching sessions were intended to assist participants showcase their interests and capacities, identify complementary partners, and stimulate the development of future project consortia and collaborations.

At in.mat-Lab, we are advancing the frontier of lightweight composite materials engineered for superior thermal insulation performance.
After an intensive phase of research and material optimization, our team has successfully developed a novel composite system combining reduced density with enhanced insulating characteristics. The material architecture has been designed to address growing demands for energy efficiency, structural performance, and scalable manufacturing.
The product has now reached a key milestone and is entering the next phase of validation and performance evaluation as we prepare the pathway toward commercialization.
We believe lightweight, high-performance composite solutions will play a pivotal role in enabling more sustainable industrial systems — and this innovation represents an important step in that direction.

in.mat-Lab is proud to announce that European Commission/Joint Research Centre invited our founder Dr. Antonia Ekonomakou to participate in the workshop: “Advancing Construction Materials – Advanced and innovative materials as enablers of sustainability, circularity, resilience, and competitiveness in the EU construction sector”.

The workshop presented the findings of the ongoing study on advanced and innovative materials in the construction sector. The study looks at how advanced materials can address key challenges for construction - from sustainability and resource efficiency to resilience and competitiveness. The discussion was focused on systemic enablers for innovation, including testing and demonstration infrastructures, regulatory frameworks, and skills development. The event brought together colleagues across the Commission, alongside external experts from research and industry, to exchange perspectives and provide input to the finalization of the report.

The workshop took place on 16th October 2025 at the European Commission premises in Brussels.

ReGlass2Con project has already been initiated and some first results are quite encouraging. The main target is to develop innovative, sustainable, and lightweight geopolymer-based building materials, primarily from recycled glass waste, which will serve as eco-friendly alternatives to traditional construction materials.

in.mat-Lab will play a pivotal role in the development of lightweight geopolymer-based materials by conducting expandability studies, optimizing material properties, and supporting the scaling-up process from laboratory to pilot scale.

ReGlass2Con is funded by Eurostars 3 – Call 7. Eurostars is part of the European Partnership on Innovative SMEs. The partnership is co-funded by the European Union through Horizon Europe.

in.mat-Lab is happy to announce our participation in a New Research Project: "Lightweight aggregates and functional fillers from recycled glass for construction applications" (ReGlass2Con)
https://in-mat-lab.eu/research-project-reglass2con/

The goal of ReGlass2Con project is to develop innovative, sustainable, and lightweight geopolymer-based building materials, primarily from recycled glass waste, which will serve as eco-friendly alternatives to traditional construction materials. The project will involve the full life cycle of these materials, from their development at laboratory scale to pilot-scale testing, sustainability analysis, and commercialization.

ReGlass2Con is funded by Eurostars 3 – Call 7. Eurostars is part of the European Partnership on Innovative SMEs. The partnership is co-funded by the European Union through Horizon Europe.
