TESELA signs a bilateral agreement with the UNESCO Chair in Digital Cultural Heritage and the EU ERA Chair in Digital Cultural Heritage of the TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY OF CYPRUS


TESELA and DIMERA, a company specialising in research and development (R&D) of advanced materials, have signed a collaboration agreement aimed at driving the development of sustainable materials through innovative approaches based on materials science, digitalisation and artificial intelligence.
This agreement establishes a joint framework for the design, development and optimisation of sustainable materials, combining TESELA’s expertise in applied innovation with DIMERA’s ability to manage R&D processes from the initial research stages through to scalability and technology transfer. The main objective of this collaboration is to link scientific research with its real-world application in the market, fostering the creation of advanced solutions that address current challenges in sustainability, resource efficiency and the circular economy.
The collaboration between the two organisations focuses on the use of advanced digital tools and predictive modelling methodologies to improve the design of sustainable materials. This approach makes it possible to predict how materials will behave before they are produced, thereby optimising their functional properties and their environmental impact. The incorporation of artificial intelligence into research processes opens up new possibilities for optimising parameters such as strength, durability, energy efficiency and sustainability – key factors in the development of new materials.
One of the key pillars of the agreement is the application of circular economy principles in the development of sustainable materials. This involves considering the material’s entire lifecycle, from its design through to its reuse or recycling. In this context, the collaboration will focus on:
This approach enables progress towards production models that are more efficient, responsible and in line with today’s environmental challenges.
The agreement between TESELA and DIMERA strengthens the link between research and industrial application, facilitating the transformation of scientific knowledge into practical solutions. Thanks to this collaboration, the sustainable materials developed will not be confined to the experimental stage, but will be able to evolve into products and applications with a direct impact on sectors such as engineering, construction, energy and heritage conservation.
