Hermix is fantastic, and their support team is absolutely amazing. They helped us every step of the way, ensuring our success. Highly recommend!” (Jesse Lee, Board Advisor at EuroForce Gmbh).

Hermix participated in the Innovation Management for SMEs event organized by the Small Business Standards (SBS).

We had such a great collaboration earlier this year when we signed a €920k grant from Eureka Eurostars, in partnership with the University of Luxembourg.

This partnership was fundamental and served as a key factor in ensuring the project’s success. We are also glad to be beneficiaries of additional R&D funds, including, ERDF – ADR-BI, and the EU Datathon award from the Publications Office of the European Union.

Stefan Morcov represented us talking about innovation, SMEs, and public funding.

Our main key points were:

• Public funds are essential for funding innovation, especially for SMEs and startups.
• There are huge funds available & spent by gov, incl. public contracts and R&D grants. But it is expensive and difficult to access them => competition is low.
• There’s a gap between public funds/donnors vs. private beneficiaries.
• Hermix supports to analyze and organize this info + streamline proposal preparation, through market intelligence, AI/LLM summarization, proposal generation.
• We submitted 7 grants to win 2 + 1 award. The effort is huge, even with existing expertise.
• Hermix received incredible support, such as grants from Eureka Eurostars and ERDF, a great award + prize from EC – OP, as well as coaching through EIC.
• Practical innovation models and frameworks in startups. The difficulty to match formal models (e.g. TRL) with software/research startups, where agile models (SCRUM, Kanban) are a better fit.
• Private and public efforts should be combined.

The main pains of SMEs are:

• Finding relevant information. Too much info is available, difficult to analyze/organize.
• Overhead – incl. effort + cost to access public contracts, implement standards and frameworks (ISO, QA, GDPR, CMM…). Need to prioritize.
• Access to relevant networking + business opportunities.

Hermix wins funding from Eureka Eurostars for the project “Hermix-Grants – Public grants innovation: intelligence, analytics and automation with data-science, big-data and AI/ML“.

The project aims to create an IT platform designed to aid researchers and businesses in navigating grant opportunities. It will provide users with deep-analysis and support to understand, predict, and control the European funding ecosystem.

The product Hermix-Grants will use technology that allows the integration and aggregation of multiple databases and data sources, so that relevant information can be easily accessed at any time, through interfaces and reports adapted to the needs of the future beneficiaries of grants. It will perform intelligent data interpretation using specialized big-data and AI analysis.

The project is implemented in an effective partnership with the University of Luxembourg. The international collaboration is fundamental, serving as a key factor ensuring the project’s success.

Eureka is the world’s biggest public network for international cooperation in R&D and innovation, present in over 45 countries. Eurostars is the largest international funding programme for SMEs wishing to collaborate on R&D projects that create innovative products, processes or services for commercialisation.
The program is co-funded by the European Union through Horizon Europe.

The technical coordinator for this project is Dr. Eng. Stefan Morcov, computer science engineer, MBA, PhD from KU Leuven university.

Prof. Dr. Radu State is the head of the research group SEDAN (Service and Data Management) at SnT. He obtained his MSc at the Johns Hopkins University (USA) and his PhD at INRIA (France). He supervises 14 PhD students, 8 R&D specialists, and 12 research associates, working on several industry driven projects with local and international companies.

“We are honored to be part of the Eurostars program and partner with the prestigious University of Luxembourg. Hermix is our child and passion. Over more than 2 years, we have put a lot of effort into its development, achieving already strong results. We eagerly anticipate enhancing it further with the support of Eureka and the University of Luxembourg. Our collaboration was crucial for this“, says Stefan Morcov, CEO Hermix.

“We are very excited to work on this project together, and bring our institutions closer through research”, says Prof. Radu State, head of the SEDAN research group at the University of Luxembourg.

The added value of the project consists in offering an innovative solution to clients that apply to non-reimbursable funding and grants. It will lead to savings in processing time, the reduction of human errors, and above all the automation of advanced data analysis processes. Last but not least, it will offer simplicity and comfort in use, democratizing European public funding.
