Registration is now open for BIC members, regions and invited guests for the BIC webinar 'Connecting the bio-based industries and European regions' taking place 10:30-11:30 CET, Friday, 2 July.
BIC recently launched a new platform to better connect industry members with European regions. The platform focuses on creating local value chains and access to finance, helping regions and industry bridge the gap between bio-based investment opportunities and financial incentives at regional level. In this webinar, BIC will guide you through how this platform functions.
BIC will be joined by regions participating in the platform who will elaborate on the bio-based oppportunities in their region and their involvement in the platform. Finally, the European Committee of Regions (CoR), who offically support the BIC platform, will provide the closing intervention.
