Explore New Technology Partnerships in Poland and Spain

In collaboration with Enterprise Europe Network (EEN), we would like to bring a new interesting collaboration opportunity to your attention. We do so with the aim of fostering international cooperation and knowledge exchange, which are essential to accelerating innovation and strengthening organisations in an increasingly competitive and technology-driven landscape.

This time, we highlight opportunities from Poland and Spain, focusing on AI-native system architectures, IT/OT cybersecurity, cybersecurity skills development and regulatory compliance. Both offer opportunities for international research collaboration, technology development and participation in European R&D projects.

Polish Company Seeking Partners for AI-Native and Adaptive System Development

A Polish technology company specialising in advanced digital and industrial systems is seeking technology partners, industrial organisations and research institutions for joint R&D projects. The company develops AI-native architectures and adaptive systems that combine artificial intelligence, data analysis, risk assessment and automation. Its solutions can be applied in areas including IT/OT cybersecurity, vehicle telemetry, autonomous systems and mechatronics.

The company is looking for partners with expertise in AI and data engineering, industrial automation, embedded systems, cybersecurity, robotics and system integration. Partners are expected to contribute technical knowledge, infrastructure or data to support joint development, demonstrator creation and technology validation in laboratory or operational environments.

Collaboration may also involve preparing joint R&D proposals for national and European funding programmes and exploring opportunities for further implementation.

Spanish Technology Institute Seeking Partners for European Cybersecurity Consortium

A Madrid-based technology education institute specialises in cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, cloud computing and data management. The institute is seeking partners to form or join a consortium for the DIGITAL-ECCC-2027-DEPLOY-CYBER-11 call under the Digital Europe Programme. The initiative aims to strengthen cybersecurity capabilities across Europe, address the digital skills gap and support regulatory compliance.

The institute is looking for project coordinators, research institutions and technology partners developing European cybersecurity initiatives. It offers to lead work packages focusing on cybersecurity skills development, upskilling and reskilling, regulatory training covering NIS2, the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), DORA and the AI Act, as well as cyber range exercises and SME cybersecurity adoption.

With experience in publicly funded cybersecurity projects, including a project worth over €4 million focused on cybersecurity training and entrepreneurship, the institute also maintains educational partnerships with technology providers such as AWS, Microsoft, Cisco and Google. Collaboration would focus on developing a joint European project proposal and strengthening cybersecurity capacity building.
