EU Framework Programme
MULTICARE – Multi-hazard low-carbon resilient technologies and multi-scale digital services for a future-proof, sustainable & user-centred built environment.
Programme: Horizon Europe
Duration: 1.10.2023 – 30.09.2027
MULTICARE will develop innovative multi-criteria decision-support frameworks and provide plug & play low-carbon resilient technologies for improving the multi-hazard resilience of our built environment in a cost-effective, reliable and sustainable manner. A suite of multi-disciplinary digital services and tools will be developed for multi-hazard resilience assessment, design, operation and management across multiple scales (material, component, building, neighbourhood/district). This will enable stakeholders to make more informed decisions to select materials/solutions and build resilient supply chains, even in case of cultural heritage buildings.

SMETHOD – Methodology for efficient segmenting innovating SMEs based on lifecycles, represented sectors and regional characteristics
Programme: Horizon 2020
Duration: 16.12.2017 – 30.06.2020
SMEthod aims to develop an improved methodology for segmenting innovative small and medium-sized enterprises for the purpose of optimizing the support provided to such companies by relevant institutions. Four case studies are being analyzed in detail: Finland, Spain, Poland and the United Kingdom; nevertheless, the results of the project will have pan-European application.
The methodology to be developed at SMEthod will take into account a number of relevant factors, such as the life cycle of the company, the sector and region of operations, and the innovation cycle, among others. The project will also develop criteria to more effectively match given types of innovation support to particular segments of companies. In addition, based on the results of the research work, an IT tool will be created to support decision-making in institutions providing support to innovative companies.
ASM has several key responsibilities in the SMETHOD project:
- Project Management: ASM is leading the overall management of the project. This includes overseeing the technical, scientific, administrative, and financial aspects to ensure smooth project operations.
- Development of Methodologies: ASM leads the creation of improved methodologies for segmenting Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and assessing innovation support.
- Dissemination and Communication: ASM leads the dissemination and communication activities, planning communication strategies and organizing events to share findings and methodologies.
- Data Collection and Analysis: ASM coordinates quantitative and qualitative data collection and econometric evaluation of innovation policies.
