The BIObec project seeks to promote bioeconomy training to bridge the gap between the bio-based industry and the education system.
The project will establish multi-level Bio-based Education Centers (BBECs) to act as hubs or knowledge centers that bridge the gap between academic institutions, students, innovation entities and policy makers.
With a budget of 1.5 million euros, this initiative has been funded by the Bio-Based Industries Joint Undertaking (BBI JU) under the framework of the research and innovation program Horizon 2020 of the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program.
