From research to reality:
How Europe’s bioeconomy is leading the way to a truly circular economy
Thursday, 4 October 2018
09:30 – 11:00
European Parliament, Strasbourg, France, Room N3.5
Across Europe, innovative companies are growing the bio-based economy, helping create jobs, spurring research and improving people’s lives. From planet-friendly bioplastics to new food ingredients, renewable energy solutions to sustainably produced chemicals, bioeconomy industries represent a resource-efficient and largely waste-free use of Europe’s renewable raw materials. This breakfast event will spotlight several European bioeconomy players who have moved beyond research and are already helping create a truly circular economy.
This event is co-organized with EUBA (European Bioeconomy Alliance) and ERRIN (European Regions Research and Innovation Network).
