Spιros Mourelatos at the 5th Annual IMPACT Conference (June 12, 2026, Patras)

The central message of the presentation was that technology helps businesses because it persuades, changes perceptions, and delivers results in a transparent and impactful way.

On Friday, June 12, 2026, Spiros Mourelatos presented the initiatives at Ecodevelopment as a project in full operations at the 5th Annual IMPACT Conference. This international institution in Western Greece, IMPACT—Innovation to the Market, PAtras Conference on Technology Transfer—has a clear goal: to bridge the gap between research and production. As such, it brings together researchers, representatives of organizations, entrepreneurs, startups, investors, and academics to present trends, solutions, and best practices.

At the relevant session on the topic “The Challenges of Manufacturing and Industry,” moderated by Mr. Panagiotis Anastasopoulos, CEO of the Port of Patras Authority, representatives from major food companies (V. Kyriakopoulos, Patras Plant Manager, FrieslandCampina Hellas S.A.), the telecommunications sector (Z. Papavramopoulou, OTE), and heavy industry (D. Fotopoulos, Technical Director, TITAN S.A.).

Spiros Mourelatos spoke about the rapid digital transformation of Eco-Development in 2016 and the subsequent generation of large volumes of field data, which has now led to a decision-making system based on artificial intelligence that enables natural-language interaction with the company’s database. Ecodev Intelligence, as presented, is the first system of its kind globally that, unlike conventional dashboards, provides continuous feedback from field operations, supports workflows and decision-making, and facilitates adaptation to changing conditions in large-scale mosquito control projects.

Ecodevelopment’s services now span multiple sectors (Public Health, Climate, Environment and Agri-Environment, One Health, Technology, and Artificial Intelligence) that fall within three rapidly growing markets: Vector-Borne Diseases and Artificial Intelligence (CAGR: 17.8%), Artificial Intelligence in Epidemiology (CAGR: ~27%), and Healthcare as Software as a Service (CAGR: 18.5%).
