Project ALLIANCE – blue biotechnology in the Baltic Sea Region
We are pleased to inform that the University of Gdańsk is partner of the ALLIANCE project, funded from the INTERREG BSR Programme. The project will integrate partners from the Baltic Sea Region who work and are interested in blue biotechnology.
Cooperation between research institutes, laboratories, parks and companies will provide all interested parties with a wide access to expertise, infrastructure and services necessary for the development of innovative products based on marine resources. Partner organisations from Baltic Sea Region will map and attract potential users from the private sector to develop further in the area of blue biotechnology. The objective of ALLIANCE is initiating a long-term cooperation and a systematic exchange of on scientific, marketing and industrial level. Together with end-users – potential and existing companies – the project will support the implementation of best international biotech solutions based on infrastructure and expertise from different countries of the Baltic Sea Region.
