Description
Biotechnology and biomanufacturing can be part of the solution to address many societal and environmental challenges, such as climate mitigation and adaptation, access to and sustainable use of natural resources, food supply and security, and human health. They are key for the competitiveness and the modernisation of our economy due to their high growth potential and increased labour productivity. However, the sector is facing several challenges, including research and technology transfer to the market, regulatory complexity, access to finance, skills, public acceptance, or economic security. Therefore, the European Commission proposed a series of targeted actions to boost biotechnology and biomanufacturing in the EU.

The European Cluster Collaboration Platform, on behalf of the European Commission, organises the EU Clusters Talk “Building the future with nature: Biotechnology and Biomanufacturing in the EU” on 29 May, 8:30 – 9:45 CET, to present the EU Biotechnology and Biomanufacturing Initiative, hear about the challenges and action areas with cluster practitioners, and discuss how these promising technological areas can develop their full potential.
This event is part of regular online meetings brought to the cluster community by the European Cluster Collaboration Platform. They offer up-to-date insights into the latest industrial policies and clusters’ involvement, projects, and best practices, the latest ECCP news, and funding opportunities. The EU Clusters Talks are a space to exchange knowledge and to discuss cluster-relevant topics, which will change with every meeting.
Prior registration to this event is compulsory before 29 May 2024, 7:30 CET. This EU Clusters Talk is open to participants from the European Union and SMP/COSME countries. Approval for attending the session will be given individually.
