The exact time and speakers for the webinar will be shared shortly!
On the 8th of July BaMS will host a webinar on the topic of blue value chains: from production and processing to product development and marketing. The webinar will take place in English and feature guest speakers from various EU projects actively working on projects in the Blue Value Chain, as well as Sascha Hermus of 3N, who would present the role of the blue value chain in agriculture.
The webinar aims to answer and encourage discussion around the following leading questions:
What are the primary cost and energy efficiency challenges currently facing European blue biomass production compared to global competitors?
Does it make economic sense to build European-only blue value chains?
What are the Unique Selling Points (USPs) of European blue economy products & services? Why do inventors sometimes run in the opposite direction?
The objective is to highlight the realities of value creation in the blue economy from challenging offshore environments to gaining a foothold in highly competitive global markets.
By showcasing specific pilots in European projects along blue value chains, the webinar aims to disseminate real-life challenges and important considerations for stakeholders seeking to initiate, scale-up, invest in or monitor blue economy ventures. In doing so, others can learn from common pitfalls and increase the quality of their own business plans
