C4B Strengthens Collaboration with Sister Projects in “Seeds of Success” Webinar

C4B was proud to contribute to the online webinar “Seeds of Success: How to Get Funded in the Bioeconomy”, an event made possible thanks to the close collaboration of three EU-funded sister projects: TOBE REAL, C4B and BioINSouth. United by a shared ambition, these projects work together to strengthen the capacities of key bioeconomy actors and foster the development of sustainable value chains and business models across Europe.
Representing C4B, Anna Franciosini (PNO Innovation Italy) delivered a dedicated session on opportunities for primary producers and stakeholders in the bioeconomy, sharing insights on emerging EU funding possibilities, strategic approaches, and the essential role of regional actors.
The session also served as an excellent occasion to announce the upcoming C4B open calls, which will offer up to €60,000 in funding for the validation of project outcomes.
The webinar brought together 56 participants from companies, clusters, public administrations, and research organisations, who benefited from the combined expertise of the three sister projects. Alongside C4B, the programme featured:
Lara Valentín (TOBEREAL) – presenting EU funding opportunities and the importance of a multi-actor approach for competitive proposals
Nadia Vouggiannopoulou (BioINSouth) – sharing insights and opportunities emerging from EU-funded regional initiatives
Special thanks go to CluBE – Cluster of Bioeconomy and Environment of Western Macedonia for their valuable support in co-organising and managing the webinar.
Through this joint effort, the three sister projects continue to empower Europe’s bioeconomy ecosystem, enhance collaboration among stakeholders, and help unlock the potential of regional value chains.
