EmDoT at the DAEM Conference

EmDoT SA, led by our CEO Dimitris Venizelos, joined Panel 2: “Urban regeneration and Public Space: From Intervention to Transformation” at the DAEM Conference on Saturday, 4 October.
Dimitris Venizelos spoke on “Smart Waste Management: Innovation, Sustainability and Resilience for the Cities of Tomorrow.”
Core point: You can’t improve what you can’t measure.
What we put forward:
- Cities need measurement-first operations: clear KPIs, live monitoring, and decision support that link cleanliness to public health (including mental health) and local economic performance.
- EmDoT supports municipalities with a digital waste-management stack that enables source separation, Pay-As-You-Throw (PAYT), and predictable service levels, aiming for cleaner neighborhoods, less landfill, and lower cost.
- Our solution is designed to stand internationally in Europe, delivering auditable results and policy-aligned implementation.
The reality on the ground
- Dynamic bin networks and new waste streams.
- Limited staffing, rising waste volumes, and high variability (seasonality, holidays, F&B-heavy districts).
- Constrained fleets with diverse technical specs.
These constraints demand multi-factor, digital operations—from routing and shift planning to capacity and asset management.
