Periodic Report Summary - BECOTEPS (The bio-economy technology platforms join forces to address synergies and gaps between their strategic research agendas)

Publishable summary - Summary description of the project objectives

Becoteps, a joint EU project between nine European Technology Platforms (ETPs) aims at contributing to the creation of a strong knowledge-based bio-economy (KBBE) in Europe through three main objectives, which are:

1. achieve closer and more coordinated collaboration between the nine KBBE European Technology Platforms (ETPs) involved in Becoteps and any other ETP wishing to become a supporting association/beneficiary under the project.
2. develop recommendations for better interaction between the KBBE ETP stakeholders along the product chains and the sustainability issue regarding multidisciplinary research, innovation and policy issues to enhance implementation of the ETPs' Strategic Research Agendas (SRAs).
3. encourage discussions between European and national, public and private, research and innovation initiatives to foster implementation of the ETPs' SRAs based on the recommendations developed between the ETPs.
