The Bio-Based Industries Joint Undertaking launched annual Call for Proposals.
All stakeholders (large industries, SMEs, technology providers, academia) are encouraged to take part in this new venture and contribute to the deployment of a new and sustainable economy.
Deadline for submission of proposals: 07 September 2017
Size and resources: The consortium must be composed of at least three ‘legal entities’ established in three different Member States and/or Associated Countries. Only Coordination and Support actions can be a carried either by a single ‘legal entity’ or a consortium of ‘legal entities’.
Call topics are listed at the end of the page.
