The Institute of Communication and Computer Systems (ICCS) of the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) of the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) was founded in 1992. It was founded with the ‘charta’ to support the performance of top-quality research, development activities and the provision of scientific service to private and public bodies. Essentially the mission of ICCS was to support the deployment, the realization and the growth of the research priorities of ECE mainly through seeking, pursuing and acquiring research funding via the competitive calls for research proposals that the European Commission had instigated. In turn its purpose has been to build a research personnel base alongside ECE’s faculty so as to conduct state-of-the-art research and at the same time improve the research laboratory equipment base and infrastructures of the School.
ICCS is the Coordinator of THEROS project. At the same time, ICCS is responsible for defining the system architecture and integration plan (Task 2.4), developing a data management and harmonization platform (Task 4.2), implementing interfaces that will form a dynamic digital passport for quality-labeled foods (Task 4.1), developing data integration techniques for the large-scale organic carbon monitoring (Task 3.1) as well as providing interfaces for DNA-based GI product authenticity methods (Task 3.4). Moreover, ICCS will lead THEROS GroundBreakers Advisory Board (Task 6.3). In addition, ICCS will contribute to stakeholder mapping and end-user needs analysis and requirements (Task 2.1), technical specifications of THEROS technical components (Task 2.3), THEROS verification engine (Task 4.3), THEROS Pilot preparation (Task 5.2-5.5).Finally, ICCS is responsible for Liaison with EU bodies and other relevant research activities & projects within EU (Task 6.2).

BIONET
AGROTIKOS SYNETAIRISMOS BIOPARAGOGON DYTIKIS ELLADAS
Bio Net West Hellas is the biggest and most powerful group of organic producers in Greece.
BIO NET WEST HELLAS is a cooperation from small family organic farms, in the wider region of Western Greece.
Within a rich natural ecosystem, in an area called “The Natural Park Of Greece”, the organic farmers of the Agri-Environmental Group, combine the farming with animal breeding.
More than 200 organic farmers of Bio Net Hellas, with respect for nature and with a deep ecological awareness, produce quality products free of any chemicals.
All producers and the operation of the Cooperative, are audited and certified in relation to the applied organic production methods, as well as in accordance with Global G.A.P. standard, which means proper handling of the environment and agricultural land.
The applied agricultural practices:
– Are based on the connection of the traditional way of production with modern scientific knowledge.
– Aim to create strong & healthy plants & animals within one healthy environment.
– Zero use of chemicals. Avoid all forms of environmental pollution.
– Minimization of agricultural supplies from third parties.
– Utilization of 100% of crop residues and animal organic waste, for the production of high lubrication value “compost”.
– Application of green fertilization, crop rotation and common cultivation of plants, with respect and positive utilization of natural ecological balances, in order to reduce (until zero) the required inputs.
– Reduction to a minimum of energy needs and the use of renewable energy sources (photovoltaic systems, wind turbines, etc.) to meet most of the energy needs.
– Ensuring in farmed animals, living conditions such that allow the development of the basic aspects of their innate behavior.
Our main target: The production of agricultural products of high biological value & quality, proposing the preservation of natural wealth & ecological sustainability, seeking to maintain a stable economic, social & cultural prosperity of our member producers.
Through the application of organic farming, we visualize to develop a spherical system of agricultural farming (plants and animal products) having as our main goal the production of high biological value produce without using chemical fertilizers, G.T.O, hormones and antibiotics. Our aim is to preserve biological balance within the frame of the wider environment.
Our main concern is to achieve the health and durability of plants and animals, as a result of having a closed circuit of production using the least possible volume of additives. Organic growing in coordination with organically fed livestock in organic farms is carried out in accordance with biodynamic cultivation standards set by the Group of Organic Farmers of West Greece and DEMETER, which in their turn abides by the principles of IFOAM and regulations of the European Union.
The result of this organic way of farming is that we are able to offer authentic foods with traditional Mediterranean flavors to be remembered, totally free from any chemical residues, GMO-free, whilst securing consumer health and protecting the environment against chemical and genetic contamination.
MEXILLON
CONSELLO REGULADOR DO MEXILLON DE GALICIA
The Galician Mussel Regulatory Council began its activities in 1994, although the work prior to its constitution began in 1989. The objective of the body was, from the beginning, the promotion of the quality of the Galician mussel.
One of the first initiatives of the Regulatory Council was the request, under the terms of the regional regulations, for the recognition of “Quality Galician Product” for the Galician mussel. At that time, this regulation was applied only to agri-food products from the land, so that the mussel became the first product of the sea to obtain that mention.
Subsequently, the European Union established a unified community framework for Denominations of Origin and other quality figures linked to a specific geographical location, obliging member countries to eliminate or reconvert all types of brands, denominations and regulations that mention origin. as a determinant of product quality.
Once again, the Galician Mussel was a pioneer in its application and became the first seafood product in Europe to obtain the “Protected Designation of Origin” quality label. In 2007, the Mejillón de Galicia Protected Designation of Origin was registered in the European Union register and is currently the only PDO for a seafood product in Spain.
Since then, the Regulatory Council has been acquiring perfectly defined functions and has been perfecting its quality control systems. At the same time, the Mejillón de Galicia brand increased its notoriety and prestige among producers, marketers and consumers.
Within THEROS, MEXILLON co-leads (along with KIWA) T5.4 Pilot demonstration in Spain and participates in T1.1 Administration and Financial Coordination, in T1.3 Quality and Risk Management, in T2.1 Stakeholder mapping and end-user needs analysis and requirements, in T2.4 THEROS system architecture and integration plan, in T3.4 DNA based authenticity kit, in T3.5 Blockchain enhanced traceability system, in Subtask T4.1.2 – Dynamic digital product passport for organic/GI food assets, in T4.3 THEROS verification engine, in T5.6 Impact assessment & evaluation, in T6.1 Dissemination & communication and in T6.4 Exploitation activities, market-entry preparation plan and IPR management.
