MICO is well positioned in a landscape of national and international networks. Particularly, it will build on the outcomes of many research projects that have been carried out in the last years in the area of information extraction and information management. MICO is also working closely with commercial stakeholders to test the MICO prototypes. Here is a list companies and projects currently testing and exploiting the MICO platform and components.
