Final conference held and a lot learned in the process!

On March 5th the Blue Green Bio Lab partners held an online final conference. More than 30 participants joined to learn about the results and main take aways in the project. We also discussed the challenges and opportunities for local authorities in initiating bio-industrial symbioses involving aquaculture, agriculture, and industry to ensure the use of local blue/green biomasses with the purpose to produce positive ecosystem services and sustainable products

Participants came from Sweden, Latvia and Denmark representing various sectors and branches within the field of circular bioeconomy. During breakout sessions we discussed the role of technology, effective ways to engage a diverse group of stakeholders, how to best work within existing regulations, and how to develop trust within competitive businesses.

We from the project would like to  thank everyone for their participation and valuable input to our discussions,
