Virtual reality applications for Peloponnisos Prefecture. The
research-study aims at investigating the potential of VR-based applications for the digital
advertisement and promotion of Peloponnisos Prefecture. TRIPMENTOR. The project concerns the development of a bilingual service
(English, Greek) in the form of a web-interactive platform/ application that will provide a
personalized, integrated and unique travel experience to the visitor of the Attica region.
Alternative map routes will be proposed to the traveler connected to the app for recreational
purposes, including stops at the selected points of interest with real time information on cultural,
recreational and athletic events. Suggestions and relative recreational proposals will match the
traveler's preferences (profile type), determined through a specific internal functionality of the
platform, which combines information that she/ he provides (answers to up to 5 short questions) with
relative data extracted from social media. Each route includes stops that have meaningful, cultural,
chronological or thematic relevance to each other, optimum duration of visit, optimal way of travel
and total duration of the journey, creating personalized narration- storytelling and incorporating
gamification elements, depending on the characteristics of the visitor and the weighting of her/ his
personal interests. PaloAnalytics. This project will develop the innovative PaloAnalytics platform that will allow companies
and organizations, which operate in many countries, to monitor and analyze in depth the markets'
interest to their products and successfully plan their marketing and communication strategy with
data and insights collected from all the local media and presented in a common language, English.
PaloAnalytics platform will cover the need of international companies to manage their reputation
and compare it with the competitors. It will also allow them to investigate the impact of their
products on consumers across different countries and this will be achieved with the analysis of
content from sites, blogs, social networks and open data. The developed services will allow companies
to identify both positive and negative comments and reports about their brand name and products and the
individual features that formed the public opinion. KALAMATA 1821: Roads of Freedom The proposal aims to study and exhibit to the wider public, important local parameters

in Kalamata, with important historic significance and strong interrelation with the wider area
(e.g. preparation for the uprising, economic life of the region, beginning of the revolution,
Navarino naval battle), in order to describe the 200 years of history and the historic correlations. CrossCult":
