Bio-based Innovation


The project seeks work with Nordic start-ups to develop sustainable products based on terrestrial and marine bio materials. The overall goal is to reduce carbon emissions by coming up with replacements for fossil-based plastics that instead are based on virgin or repurposed bio materials such as wool and seaweed. The project will organise a series of workshops to help start-ups in the North Atlantic that are interested in exploring and developing bio-economy and circular-economy value change. The hope is that this will lead to products with a smaller carbon footprint than those they replace, as well as encourage collaborative networks that span the region.
