The European Commission launched a call for evidence and a public consultation on a circular, regenerative and competitive bioeconomy.
The update of the 2012 Bioeconomy Strategy, expected by the end of 2025, aims to advance innovation and maintain the EU’s leadership in the bioeconomy, and will focus on reinforcing circularity and sustainability, while contributing to the decarbonisation of the EU economy. It should propose actions to unlock the potential of bioeconomy innovations and set favourable framework conditions for bioeconomy start-ups, entrepreneurs and new business models.
At ECN, we will stress the key role of bio-waste management in a circular bioeconomy.
The feedback period will last 12 weeks until 23 June.
