| Enhance New Approaches in BioBased Local Innovation Networks for Growth Bio-based Practices | Bioeconomy | BiomassWelcome to Enabling Newsletter Coronavirus has affected much of the world and will do so for some time to come. Europe is under increasing pressure as we speak. But the current crisis is not only a medical, logistical and economic challenge. It is a challenge to our way of life, to how we address the climate crisis as well and what solutions can bioeconomy and innovation brings to us.Check out Enabling WebinarsOne of the positive opportunities that the current situation offers us is time. We all have a bit more time to read, find some inspiration to the virtual world and alternatives towards a more sustainable future. And here is Enabling’s proposal for it; our Webinars! 1st ENABLING Webinar ”The farmer at the basis of the biobased economy” 2nd ENABLING Webinar ”The role of companies and processing industry in the bioeconomy” And more Webinars to come If you are still looking for some inspiration with keywords as Biomass and Circular Economy, we have collected some upcoming Webinars to keep you updated with the Bio-Based Industry. Please find below a list with virtual classes held by EU projects, universities and other organisations. And don’t forget to inform your calendar! If not, you can find those Webinars and many more in Enabling’s Calendar in the Website.

Bioplastics for the Circular Economy USABLE PACKAGING project seeks to dramatically reduce the use of environmentally-harmful fossil-fuel-based packaging by developing products of high performance bio-alternatives based on bioplastics with adequate physical and chemical properties. In other words, it drives change by reducing the impact of plastic waste on the environment. Find out more about the project at www.usable-packaging.eu . This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 774578. Copyright © 2020 ENABLING, All rights reserved. |

H2020 ENABLING BiomassTrade Platform
On January 2020, the Enabling BiomassTrade Platform, one of the project’s most important
tools, was launched on the website.
The Biomass Trade Platform is an online venue where biomass producers and biomass
processers can meet to exchange currently not valorized organic biomass residues and organic
by-products. It allows interested users to search and offer organic biomass residues and byproducts, bio-based products as well as services in the different sectors of bioeconomy. The
Platform operates EU-wide but aims to connect stakeholders on a regional level to foster the
exchange of goods and services on a regional level.
What is more, the BiomassTrade Platofrm:
• Adds value to currently unused residues
• Directly brings together supplier and customer
• Creates new commercial opportunities for biomass producer
• Increases biomass availability for the bio-based industry
• Offers a simple and easy-to-use design
• Provides all services for free with no hidden costs at all
At the moment, the Platform operates in 10 EU languages.
More information on ENABLING can be found on the Enabling Project website and Enabling
social media (LinkedIn, Twitter, Youtube).
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme
under grant agreement No 774578.
