PhilonNet operates in a wordwide network of companies with similar focus and as a member of this network, the TechNet Alliance, it is capable of offering anything from a simple license to complete solutions, including hardware, software, networks, training, consulting, engineering and support, as well as outsourcing, operations and maintenance.

In December 2009, PhilonNet held its second HVAC seminar, titled "Concepts & Simulations of Air Flow in Buildings, Tunnels and Ships", in Athens together with Airflow Consulting AG (AFC) from Switzerland. The agenda covered multiple aspects of air flows in buildings, tunnels and ships such as energy, comfort, air quality and safety, which were demonstrated with examples from Greek and international construction projects conducted by AFC and PhilonNet.

Visual results from Computation Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis gave realistic impressions of air and thermal flows in buildings and ships, as well as smoke distributions in case of fire. Computer simulations of evacuations showed what-if studies and their influence on final project results. Flowmaster was introduced as a software engineering tool for the layout and conceptual design of thermo-fluid systems with pipes, pumps, heat exchangers, compressors, valves etc., which are the backbone of any HVAC or fire safety system. More than 40 attendees from Greek industries and Academia enjoyed an informative afternoon and animated discussions.
