Challenges and Opportunities for Marine Biotechnology in Europe

Final Conference of the CSA MARINEBIOTECH project

The international conference will bring together scientists, industry representatives, policy makers/advisors and other key stakeholders involved or interested in Marine Biotechnology research in Europe, to

  • present and discuss critical issues and policy, scientific and industry perspectives relevant to various geographic scales (pan-European, macro-regional, national, sub-national regional)
  • provide insight into some of the most important recent and ongoing European Marine Biotechnology research projects and initiatives and gather lessons learned for the future,
  • discuss the status and progress in the support and coordination of marine biotechnology research in Europe to inform future policy and coordination efforts.

The conference will also present the outcomes of the CSA MarineBiotech project and look forward towards the MARINEBIOTECH ERA-NET which will start later in 2013 or early 2014 (if awarded).
