SUMMARY:Financing the Bioeconomy
DESCRIPTION:Financing the bioeconomy is always a new challenge. This event will outline the help available to assist in navigating the pathway across the difficult valley from ‘Research to Business funding’. We will also hear about sources of funding from the European Circular BioEconomy €250 million Fund. \n  \nMPowerBIO Empowers Clusters to Bring SMEs Across the Financial Valley of Death \nMany SMEs experience that even though they have a good idea or a good product\, they cannot get an investor. They need to be able to pitch their idea perfectly\, have a strong business plan\, a clear strategy\, a well-defined customer base\, etc. to attract investors. Filippo will present on how IBF and MPower BIO can assist in navigating the pathway across the difficult valley from ‘Innovation to Business’. \nDr. Filippo Giancarlo Martinelli (MBA\, PDEng\, MSc)\, European Ambassador\, Irish Bioeconomy Foundation \n  \nFunding Perspectives for Scale-up in the European Bioeconomy \nECBF is the first venture fund exclusively focused on the bioeconomy and the circular bioeconomy in Europe. With a target size of €250 million\, to which the European Investment Bank (EIB) has committed €100 million\, ECBF will be an important financial instrument in achieving the European Green Deal goals of making Europe climate neutral by 2050. \nDr. Michael Brandkamp\, European Circular Bioeconomy Fund\, Germany \n  \nCross-border funding opportunities in a critical sector for the island – InterTradeIreland \nInterTradeIreland sees huge opportunities for business growth in Northern Ireland and Ireland through an island wide approach to the bioeconomy.
