ALLIANCE Call for ideas
The Baltic Blue Biotechnology Alliance (ALLIANCE) is looking for promising cases in the field of blue biotechnology in need of dedicated expert support for product and service development. Case partners will explore new ideas with the potential to develop sustainable and innovative products from marine biological resources that are relevant to and for the benefit of the Baltic Sea Region (BSR).
The ALLIANCE will invite the most promising cases among those selected in this call for ideas to join the project as reserved project partners, with a proposal of funding assistance.
The ALLIANCE will support the case owners by fully identifying and pooling the available resources to work through and assess the likely results of blue biotechnology product and service development cases. This will ensure finding appropriate solutions (be it a partner, resources, or infrastructure) proof of concept or even the development of a marketable product.
The deadline for applications is 4 September 2016. Selected applicants will be invited on 26-27 October 2016 to Helsinki, Finland, to present their project to an international expert panel. The winners will join ALLIANCE as project partners.
