Services

Strategic Consultancy Services.

A strategy is defined as “a detailed plan aimed at achieving long-term, high-impact goals." Our strategy consulting services assist both private and public sector clients in developing organizational and functional strategies, sustainability initiatives, and economic policies with a human-centered approach. We help you uncover hidden growth opportunities within your assets. We believe that simplifying your business model allows you to concentrate on the most critical aspects of your operations. By adopting an agile and inclusive approach, we reduce complexity and promote a harmonious work-life balance.

Socially Aware Systems Design.

We provide state-of-the-art, socially-aware technology development tailored to meet your unique requirements. Using a co-creation and co-design methodology and leveraging cutting-edge open-source frameworks, we empower your organisation to exceed expectations in high-impact innovation. Our solutions, whether cloud-based or on-premise, are secure by design and structured for effortless scalability. Ethical and trustworthy practices are fundamental to our offerings.

Fostering DeepTech Innovation.

"Deep" innovation is highly sophisticated and scientifically grounded, addressing complex societal challenges. Examples of DeepTech breakthroughs include advancements in genomics, robotics, nanotechnology, 5G and 6G, biotechnology, additive manufacturing, and fluid dynamics, often originating from research labs and academia. Drawing on our multidisciplinary scientific expertise, we accelerate the scale-up of DeepTech prototypes by crafting innovative business models and robust, investor-ready business plans. From planning and development to validation and go-to-market strategies, we enhance the entire research and development lifecycle and drive market uptake.

Technology Transfer Planning & Go-To-Market.

Technology transfer involves developing a comprehensive plan to bring scientific research to market, encompassing the intricate value chain that connects research with its eventual commercial deployment. This process begins with Intellectual Property protection, followed by marketing, negotiating potential licensing agreements, and developing products based on these technical innovations. Technology transfer is a multidisciplinary endeavor that integrates both relational and non-technological factors, engaging a wide range of stakeholders. High-quality research alone is not sufficient for successful technology transfer. Our service facilitates collaboration between universities and industry leaders, crafting a plan to advance the technology readiness level (TRL) to 9 and validate the market potential.

Capacity Building & Training.

A lack of the right skills is one of the biggest barriers to innovation and change. That’s why we co-design and co-implement forward-thinking capacity building and training programs that close skill gaps across diverse fields. Collaborating with key stakeholders, we identify high-impact topics, craft tailored modules, choose effective delivery methods, and co-deliver engaging courses. We track progress using both qualitative and quantitative KPIs, refining our approach for maximum impact. Believing in the power of interaction, we embrace dynamic, innovative learning formats to help you achieve your goals.

Scientific Dissemination Services.

The success of an innovation largely depends on awareness and marketing. With an effective dissemination strategy, we help public and private organisations gain widespread attention for their results. A solid strategy also ensures long-term opportunities with appropriate spending levels. Powered by DeepTech proficiency, we build smart dissemination platforms that offer advanced functionality and seamless user experience. Our cross-disciplinary expertise in dissemination, communication, and marketing, along with our extensive network of contacts across Europe, ensures high visibility. We offer a multidisciplinary team of scientific journalists, content creators, and video-makers with strong competence in rapidly evolving domains.

Semiconductor Metrology with Nanometre Precision Powered by High Performance Computing

Emerging technologies like augmented reality, autonomous driving, and smart sensing depend on advanced photonics and nano-optics, requiring precise nanostructures fabricated with nanometre-level accuracy. Eindhoven-based SME TeraNova addresses the challenge of high-volume production with its patented, in-line, non-destructive quality inspection technology, which uses laser light scattering to measure nanostructure geometry. However, the computational demands of signal analysis for real-time inspection necessitate high-performance computing (HPC). To meet this need, TeraNova is collaborating with 81Watts to develop HPC infrastructure and integrate AI, enabling efficient, real-time quality inspection of photonic nanostructures and strengthening Europe's technological leadership. This project is developed in partnership with EuroHPC and FortissimoPlus

Competitiveness in the Design of Rowing Boats using AI and HPC

Designing Olympic and Paralympic racing shells is an exceptionally challenging task that can be significantly enhanced by leveraging Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), AI, and HPC. Filippi Boats, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of racing shells, is renowned for producing some of the lightest and fastest boats on the market. To further strengthen its competitive advantage, Filippi Boats is embracing cutting-edge technologies, including advanced CFD analysis on HPC platforms, optimization techniques, and AI-driven approaches to automate and refine the development of highly customized rowing shells, Paralympic models included. This forward-looking initiative is being spearheaded by 81Watts in collaboration with the Department of Aerospace Science and Technology at Politecnico di Milano and the School of Mechanical Engineering at the National Technical University of Athens. The project is being carried out in partnership with EuroHPC and FortissimoPlus.

Building European Alliances for Coordinated Oncology Network

The BEACON project enhances the European Cancer Imaging Initiative (EUCAIM) by integrating breast, lung, and prostate cancer screening data into its federated infrastructure. It emphasizes diversity by sourcing imaging data from various European regions, including under-represented areas. BEACON focuses on improving cancer prevention, detection, and treatment through standardized, FAIR-compliant data and AI-powered analysis tools. The project will pilot advanced AI models across 12 medical centers and aims to reach EUCAIM Tier 3 integration, leveraging prior experience from EU-funded federated networks. Led by 81Watts, dissemination efforts will ensure broad visibility through a multidisciplinary communication team and strong European networks. The project is funded by the European Health and Digital Executive Agency (HaDEA).
