Brussels, Belgium

The Blue Bioeconomy ERA-Net Cofund is pleased to announce the End-term meeting for its 1st Additional Call, scheduled for September 18th and 19th. The objective of the 1st Additional Call was to support projects that facilitate the transfer of bio-resources from harvest (catch or production) to processing. This includes aspects such as logistics, preservation, and transportation, ensuring traceability, quality, sustainability, and pre-processing for conversion into products for the market.

About

The 1st Additional Call counted with the participation of 14 partners from 13 countries, including Belgium, Croatia, Denmark, Estonia, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Latvia, Malta, Norway, Portugal (Azores), Romania, and Spain. Under this call, BlueBio funded the following 10 projects:

  • BlueBioChain: Novel biorefinery supply chains for wastewater valorization and production of high market value bio products using microalgae.
  • MARIGREEN: Sustainable utilization of MARIne resources to foster GREEN plant production in Europe. 
  • Microalgae in IT: Microalgae based, safety-tested and optimized fish feed value chain by using Interdisciplinary R&D and IT solutions.
  • MuMiFast: Mussel Mitigation Feeds and Supply System Technological Development.
  • PROFIUS: Preservation of underutilized fish biomasses for improved quality, stability and utilization. 
  • QualiSea: Enhancing and controlling the quality of cultivated seaweeds for large-scale production and a sustainable supply chain to food and feed markets. 
  • SMARTCHAIN: Smart solutions for advancing supply systems in blue bioeconomy value chains. 
  • SuMaFood: Sustainable preservation of marine biomasses for an enhanced food value chain. 
  • TACO ALGAE: Total Value Chain Optimization of seaweeds Furcellaria lumbricalis, A bioeconomical ALGAE demonstration.
  • TraceMyFish: Traceability and Quality Monitoring throughout the Fish Value Chain.

We look forward to engaging with our partners during the End-term meeting to discuss the outcomes of these projects.

The event will take place in Brussels.
