Room N3.5, European Parliament, Strasbourg
Hosted by MEP Miapetra Kumpula-Natri
Chair of the “Bioeconomy” Working Group of the EP Intergroup
on “Climate Change, Biodiversity, and Sustainable Development”
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).
