ERA-NET COFUND BlueBioeconomy (2018-2023)

The BlueBioeconomy Cofund is the result of a collaboration between JPI Oceans and the previous ERA-NET COFASP and ERA-MBT, bringing together 26 partners from 16 countries with the mission of:
- Create synergies between aquaculture and fisheries (genetic evaluation and digitalization) and use biotechnology to develop food traceability systems;
- Unlocking the potential of the microbiome for the development of aquaculture, fisheries and food processing;
- Apply recent ICT developments to blue biotechnology (IoT, machine learning, big data);
- Promoting innovation in the use of underused material, fisheries and aquaculture waste, with the aim of achieving zero waste.
The main objective of the Bluebioeconomy Cofund is to establish an R&I funding scheme that strengthens Europe's position in the context of the blue economy. The first co-funded Call was launched in December 2018.
