Overall Concept and scope Sample Clauses

Overall Concept and scope. The approach is based on the pooling of financial resources from the participating national and regional research funding agencies with EU co-funding. To achieve agreed research and technology development goals, the Member States seek to apply a range of tools appropriate to the strategic action to be addressed. One of these tools is the first call which is co-funded by EC. A large call is considered necessary in this area to achieve significant impact. At each stage of the development BlueBio will seek to build on successful research outcomes and avoid duplication with existing projects. Furthermore, additional joint activities that go beyond this co-funded call are planned, to contribute to the national priorities as well as to the strategic research agenda of JPI Oceans, and the ERA-NETs COFASP and MBT. Additional calls and related activities funded through the ERA-NET Cofund could be used to take forward calls for proposals in accordance with the JPI Oceans Operational Plan and tackle common priorities as described by the ERA-NETs. Thus, national research and innovation activities will be combined and aligned in close cooperation and coordination. The combined activities of BlueBio will create a European Blue Bioeconomy Community which will, in turn, be used to initiate new actions to strengthen Blue Growth in the framework of the bioeconomy. BlueBio will follow the existing value chains and creating new ones. Starting with the sustainable exploration and exploitation of aquatic bioresources; continuing with new or improved approaches for production and processing into a differentiated portfolio of products and services targeting a range of market segments, while applying, and further developing, enabling technologies, particularly the blue biotechnology and digitalisation, for sustainable optimisation throughout the value chain. The research and innovation areas for BlueBio are illustrated in Figure 1, structuring R&I areas along the value chain from biomass to products and markets (the split arrow) as well as crosscutting and supportive issues (the solid arrows). Potential bioresources and products are detailed in the light blue boxes. Figure 1 Research and innovation areas along the Blue Bioeconomy value chains from biomass to products and markets, also showing relevant crosscutting R&I areas in the lower part of the figure.
