The Blue Economy Cluster Builder project will provide an inclusive and free-of-charge service to ensure that Scotland’s SMEs are positioned to gain the optimum share of market growth and compete with other international Blue Economies. The Blue Economy Cluster Builder will enable Scottish SMEs to take advantage of commercial, innovation and economic opportunities within the Blue Economy and boost innovation, both within Scotland, and internationally.
The Bioeconomy Cluster Builder is a three-year ERDF funded project seeking to grow the Scottish bioeconomy through networking activity and the development of new value chains. It seeks to introduce the benefits of industrial biotechnology to less familiar sectors. The project is a collaboration between the Industrial Biotechnology Innovation Centre (IBioIC), the Knowledge Transfer Network (KTN) and Scottish Enterprise.
Both organisations run regular, targeted events. Please get in touch to find out more, or to get involved.
