MOSTEC | Marine and Offshore Science, Technology, and Engineering Centre | CMMI Cyprus

CMMI was established in April 2019 and it is a Centre of Excellence for marine and maritime research, innovation and technology development. CMMI has received funding from the EU’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme and matching funding from the Cyprus Government. The Institute’s vision is to drive sustainable Blue Growth, by building on the needs of industrial and societal blue economy stakeholders. It has ten Research and Innovation Centres that are involved in maritime engineering, marine robotics, maritime digitalisation, marine observation, marine and coastal ecosystems, maritime human element, marine cultural heritage, marine and maritime policies and regional cooperation, and underwater and seabed technologies.
The CMMI Marine & Offshore Science, Technology & Engineering Centre (MOSTEC) was established by CMMI aiming to address engineering challenges and needs of the marine and maritime sector by engaging in research and innovation activities. MOSTEC’s priorities have been set in accordance with the EU decarbonisation strategy and the vision and ambitious targets of the International Maritime Organisation (IMO), which entail for the industry to develop GHG-free vessel designs over the next decade.
