UBITECH announces the official launch of MNEME – “A Collaborative Memory Platform for Cultural Heritage,” a new Innovation Action funded under the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme (Grant Agreement No. 101285462). The project kicked off with a two-day consortium meeting held in Athens, Greece, on 23–24 June 2026, bringing together partners from across Europe to align on the project’s technical roadmap, governance structures and pilot deployment strategy. MNEME will run for 30 months, coordinated by UBITECH. MNEME delivers a large-scale, user-driven validation of the European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage (ECCCH). The project ingests curated cultural assets, including texts, images and 3D models, and harmonises them with the CIDOC-CRM and IIIF standards to form a federated knowledge graph that enables cross-collection discovery, comparative analysis and shared storytelling across institutions.

UBITECH announces its participation in AICONFORM — “Agentic Framework for Automated Regulatory Compliance” — a new action funded under the Digital Europe Programme (Grant Agreement No. 101298515), which was officially launched at a kick-off meeting hosted in Athens by the Ministry of Digital Governance of the Hellenic Republic, the project’s coordinating partner. The project runs for 24 months, having started in June 2026. Responding to the DIGITAL-2025-AI-08-COMPLIANCE call, AICONFORM sets out to deliver a modular, interoperable framework that automates the extraction, exchange, verification, and auditing of regulatory obligations across sectors. The framework operationalises core pieces of the EU’s digital rulebook — the AI Act, NIS2, and eIDAS 2.0 — through machine-readable templates, a legal knowledge graph, and agentic workflows capable of translating legislative updates into executable compliance checks. Privacy-preserving technologies, including homomorphic encryption and differential privacy, are embedded alongside qualified trust services such as qualified electronic signatures, e-seals, and timestamping, with integration of the EUDI Wallet to ensure secure identity management and non-repudiation.

UBITECH is proud to announce its participation in DIGI-METER – Measuring Digital Competence for Resilient Learning Ecosystems, a new 36-month Erasmus+ Forward-Looking Project coordinated by the Center for Social Innovation (CSI), Cyprus, which officially started in March 2026. Bringing together 11 partners from 8 European countries (Greece, Cyprus, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Portugal, Italy, and Belgium), DIGI-METER aims to transform the way digital competences are assessed, monitored, and supported across European education systems. DIGI-METER addresses one of the key challenges in European education: translating the DigComp 2.2 framework into practical, reliable, and evidence-based assessment tools that support learners, educators, institutions, and policymakers. The project will develop an adaptive, AI-powered digital competence assessment ecosystem featuring multilingual self-assessment tools, intelligent analytics dashboards, and policy-oriented resources. Designed with an ethics-by-design approach, the platform will ensure transparency, explainability, fairness, GDPR compliance, and alignment with the EU AI Act, while promoting inclusive and personalized learning experiences.
