HORIZON-CL6-2027-03-GOVERNANCE-03 - International dimension of the circular bio-based economy: seeking win-win opportunities

Corporación Tecnológica de Andalucía (CTA) is seeking partners and potential coordinators for a proposal under HORIZON-CL6-2027-03-GOVERNANCE-03 “International dimension of the circular bio-based economy: seeking win-win opportunities”.

CTA is a Spanish innovation cluster and technology transfer organisation with extensive experience in European R&I projects, circular bioeconomy, international cooperation and innovation ecosystem development.

For this topic, CTA is particularly interested in building cooperation between European and international bioeconomy ecosystems, clusters, companies, SMEs, research organisations and public authorities, identifying mutually beneficial opportunities for innovation, market development, investment and deployment of circular bio-based solutions.

CTA can contribute to the consortium through:

• International networking and stakeholder engagement, mobilising bioeconomy clusters, companies, SMEs, research organisations and public authorities.

• Multi-actor ecosystem development, connecting European regional innovation ecosystems with relevant stakeholders in third countries.

• Mapping of bioeconomy actors, value chains, innovation capacities and cooperation opportunities to identify concrete win-win areas for collaboration.

• Business and market-oriented cooperation, supporting matchmaking, exploitation pathways, market opportunities and connections between technology providers and potential adopters.

• Policy dialogue and recommendations, linking cooperation opportunities with regional, national and European bioeconomy and innovation strategies.

• Replication, knowledge transfer and capacity building, facilitating the uptake of successful approaches across regions and countries.

• Communication, dissemination and clustering, supporting visibility and synergies with relevant European and international initiatives.

CTA can build on its experience in European bioeconomy and innovation projects and its strong network of companies, clusters, technology centres, universities and public authorities, particularly in Andalusia and the wider European bioeconomy ecosystem.

We are interested in connecting with organisations able to mobilise strong bioeconomy ecosystems in Europe and strategic third countries, as well as with potential scientific coordinators, bioeconomy clusters, research organisations and organisations experienced in international cooperation.
