BBI JU to hold open info day on 2016 call
The Bio-Based Industries Joint Undertaking (BBI JU) is to hold an open info day on 21 April in Brussels, Belgium, to discuss its 2016 call for proposals.
The morning session will cover useful information about how to participate in the call, including how to apply and submit your proposal, as well as advice on how to write one.
A dedicated session will be held in the afternoon for the BBI JU and relevant stakeholders to discuss with attendees any queries related to call procedures and rules; to provide guidance on how to apply for funding; and to offer information and advice on relevant local and national resources, networks and synergies between the BBI JU programme and other initiatives.
A brokerage session will be held alongside this to help participants expand their professional contacts.
Details of the 2016 call were published in the JU’s Annual Work Plan and Budget of 2016. Selected topics include the valorisation of the organic content of wastewater as feedstock, advanced biomaterials for smart food packaging, biobased alternatives to improve protection of human health and the environment, and new sources of proteins for animal feed from co-products to address the EU protein gap.
