On 17 June, the Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU) held its inaugural cluster workshop, uniting over 30 Horizon Europe-funded projects to share insights and identify opportunities for collaboration in the area of bio-based materials for agriculture and packaging.
The workshop welcomed over 60 attendees, including delegates from the European Commission, the Bio-based Industries Consortium, and representatives from the broader bioeconomy sector.
We are pleased to share that POLYMERS-5B participated in the event. Professor Luis Fonseca presented the project’s goals and recent progress, emphasising our role in advancing innovative and sustainable material solutions. The workshop also showcased our sister initiative, the POLYMEER Project, led by Professor Assunta Marrocchi, underscoring the importance of cooperation among complementary efforts within the circular bioeconomy.
