SUMMARY:Demonstrating Bio-based Solutions for a Greener Ireland
DESCRIPTION:In this event\, the outcomes of the InformBio project will be demonstrated. \nInformBio aims to deliver a Bioeconomy Foresight Analysis providing a clear roadmap towards a sustainable bioeconomy for Ireland\, along with the tools to rigorously measure progress towards this objective. It combines data driven research\, analysis\, and modelling with input from expert thematic groups\, ensuring robust and informed outcomes for industry\, policy makers and other relevant groups. \nBy integrating biomass mapping\, value-chain analysis\, life-cycle assessment and scenario modelling\, the project\, for the first time\, attempts to quantify the potential of the bioeconomy to contribute to Ireland’s climate and sustainability targets. \nMoreover\, the project positions Ireland as a front-runner among EU member states\, by developing a prototype national bioeconomy monitoring system\, enabling stakeholders to track the development and progress of the national bioeconomy against key bioeconomy indicators. \nLogin here.

SUMMARY:Bridging the Funding Gap: Scaling Innovations in Circular Bioeconomy
DESCRIPTION:During this session\, we will engage with representatives from companies\, key experts and investors to explore available funding instruments as well as the challenges and gaps for scaling innovation. Discussions will focus on how to achieve better alignment between companies and investors. Three bio-economy relevant companies will share their experiences in securing finance and discuss what enabled them to secure scaling funding and where they faced challenges. Additionally\, investors active in the field will provide insights into their funding instruments\, and what they look for in companies. This event will be followed subsequently by live online pitching sessions for bio-businesses to enhance successful matches and exposure (organised by IBF). \nRegister here. \nOr find more information here.

SUMMARY:Farmer Involvement in the Bioeconomy – What’s Happening in Ireland and Europe
DESCRIPTION:This online event hosted by The Irish Co-operative Organisation Society (ICOS) will focus on developments in the bioeconomy which offer potential opportunities for farmers here in Ireland. The event will run from 10am to 12.15 pm on Thursday\, October 17th and will be moderated by Damien O’Reilly\, European Affairs and Communications Manager\, ICOS. The mornings proceedings will explore possible solutions to the challenges that face farming from emission reduction targets to nutrient management and storage and water quality. These diversification opportunities may present a pathway to a more resilient future and should also deliver economic benefit. The speakers and agenda should be of interest to farmers\, advisors\, co-operatives and agribusinesses as well as those concerned with the environmental and economic sustainability of our agri-food system. Topics will include the latest policy developments\, the immediate opportunities that processed manures present\, the potential of anaerobic digestion at scale (Danish example)\, cooperative bioeconomy developments in France\, an update on recent announcements Farm Zero C and ICOS Skillnet activities.
