Attesa per il 18 aprile la pubblicazione del bando 2016 dell’Iniziativa Tecnologica congiunta sulle Bioindustrie (BBI JTI)
BBI JTI
BBI JTI è un partenariato pubblico-privato (PPP) promosso dalla Commissione europea nell’ambito della Strategia europea per la Bio-economia con l'obiettivo di accelerare la creazione di una bio-industria europea competitiva.
Il PPP vede la partecipazione dell’Ue, con la Commissione europea, e del consorzio Bio-based Industries, composto da più di 200 membri, tra grandi imprese e PMI, cluster regionali, associazioni, istituti di ricerca e piattaforme tecnologiche, appartenenti a settori diversi, dall’agricoltura all’industria chimica. Al partenariato aderisce anche l'azienda italiana Novatom Spa.
L’iniziativa ha a disposizione per il periodo 2014-2020 un budget complessivo di oltre 3,7 miliardi di euro, di cui 975 milioni di euro stanziati dall’Ue tramite Horizon 2020 e 2,73 miliardi di euro provenienti dal settore industriale.
