Yesterday, June 4^th, PMBA (Pole Mer Bretagne Atlantique) hosted our first Progress Meeting in Brest (France), where we reviewed the activities, we have carried out in the last six months and organized the work we will develop in the future.

This meeting marked an important milestone in our ongoing efforts, as we reviewed results from the Innovation Regional Stakeholders Forums (IRS Forums) and first series of Blue Biotech Innovation Workshops, planning next steps.

Stay tuned because there will be interesting news related to Blue Biotechnology soon!

In one week we’ll start our Innovation Regional Forums (IRS)! During the IRS Forums, we will provide an overview of the MARINNONET project, its objectives and activities. In addition, we will create a dynamic environment to present our future workshops.

You will learn more about out key topics:

– Innovations for efficient, sustainable and resilient aquaculture;

– Observational technologies to preserve marine biodiversity and restore the health of our oceans;

– Marine derived products for industrial applications.
