CYENS

Research, technological advancement and innovation currently have a crucial role to play when it comes to growth. PwC actively supports the CYENS Centre of Excellence, which is a joint venture between the University of Cyprus, the Cyprus University of Technology and the Open University of Cyprus as well as the Max Planck Institute of Informatics and University College London, under the coordination of the Municipality of Nicosia. The aim of the Centre is to produce world class research that drives innovation towards social and economic benefit. The European Center of Excellence in Information and Communication Technologies specialises in interactive media, smart systems and emerging technologies and aims to transfer knowledge and know-how for the benefit of society and the economy of the country. The facilities, located in the center of the historic center of the capital, host, in addition to research labs and application demonstration areas, a multi-functional creative space (Thinker Maker Space) and a co-working space reflecting the outward-looking character of CYENS and its connection to the most creative part of the research and business community.
