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

C4B is proud to have contributed to the online webinar “Seeds of Success: How to Get Funded in the Bioeconomy”, an event made possible thanks to the close collaboration between three related EU-funded projects: TOBE REAL, C4B, and BioINSouth. United by a common vision, these projects work together to strengthen the capacities of key bioeconomy actors and to support the development of sustainable value chains and business models across Europe.

Representing C4B, Anna Franciosini (PNO Innovation Italy) delivered a session dedicated to opportunities for primary producers and bioeconomy stakeholders, sharing insights on new EU funding possibilities, strategic approaches, and the essential role of territories. The session was also an opportunity to announce the upcoming C4B open calls, which will offer up to €60,000 for the validation of project results.

The webinar gathered 56 participants from companies, clusters, public administrations, and research institutes, who benefited from the combined expertise of the three related projects. In addition to C4B, the programme featured:

Lara Valentín (TOBE REAL) – presenting EU funding opportunities and the importance of a multi-actor approach for competitive proposals

Nadia Vouggiannopoulou (BioINSouth) – sharing insights and opportunities arising from regionally funded EU initiatives

A special thanks goes to CluBE – Cluster of Bioeconomy and Environment of Western Macedonia for their valuable support in organising and managing the webinar.

Thanks to this joint effort, the three related projects continue to strengthen the European bioeconomy ecosystem, foster collaboration among stakeholders, and unlock the potential of regional value chains. 🚀

More collaborative activities are on the way—stay tuned!
