INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE IN ONLINE CONFERENCE ON BIOECONOMY AS A CENTRAL PILLAR DURING COVID-19

The Horizon 2020 project BE-Rural invite you to its mid-term conference “Exploring the bioeconomy as a central pillar of regional recovery plans during and after COVID-19”. The conference will take place online on 8 September 2020 at 14:00 CEST.
The objective of the online event is to explore the extent to which the implementation of a bioeconomy concept can leverage the reactivation of regional economies across Europe. During the conference, the following questions will be answered:
- How is the current crisis an opportunity to trigger systemic change?
- Who is already incorporating the bioeconomy concept into their recovery plans and actions?
- How do (short-term) recovery plans fit with bioeconomy strategies (which have a longer-term vision)?
- How resilient is our current notion of the EU bioeconomy, and can it help us navigate future crises?
