Project “BIOCONNECT: Developing the Action Plan to Foster Baltic Region Innovation Ecosystem in Biotechnology and Synthetic Biology”
The BIOCONNECT project aims to address this challenge by developing an integrated innovation action plan for a more interconnected Baltic biotechnology ecosystem, facilitating new intra-regional links through initiatives targeting students, researchers, startups, industry, capital, and policymakers. The consortium has been designed to involve diverse quadruple helix actors through a system of networks of the consortium’s members, while tapping into the best practices of innovation leaders represented by Finland - and applying them in the Baltic States. The overarching goal is to set the stage for an integrated Baltic-Nordic biotechnology cluster.
