The event is a free, 2nd Matchmaking Webinar focused on connecting technology suppliers with users in the blue bio value chains, specifically in the areas of processing technologies and product development for aquatic biomass. The webinar aims to address critical needs, foster collaboration, and identify innovative solutions for processing technologies and product development.

The focus areas of the webinar include processing technologies, product development, and target biomasses such as macro- and microalgae, bivalves, fish, and crustaceans. Key challenges and opportunities discussed in the webinar include large and small-scale solutions, primary and secondary processing, and sustainability.

The webinar is part of the BlueBioClusters (BBC) Project and the CoolBlue Project, a 3-year Horizon Europe Coordination & Support Action (CSA) that aims to assess the feasibility of regenerative ocean farming.
