4. XXI – a century of bioeconomy

5. Knowledge Based BioEconomy (KBBE) will play an important role in a global economy, where knowledge is the best way to increase productivity and competitiveness and improve our quality of life, while protecting our environment and social model.

6. A new world of Bioeconomy

7. The Bio-Economy The term “bio-economy” includes all industries and economic sectors that produce, manage and otherwise exploit biological resources (e.g. agriculture, food, forestry, fisheries and other bio- based industries); The European bio-economy has an approximate market size of over €1.5 trillion, employing more than 22 million people Sector

8. Life Sciences and Biotechnology in convergence with other technologies..,… provides the knowledge-base for the sustainable management, production and use of biological resources…… provides new, safe, affordable and eco-efficient products …… supports competitiveness and sustainability of major European industries Examples: Advances in diagnostics have increased food safety and control of animal diseases (foot and mouth; BSE) Use of enzymes in industrial and household processes (washing powder), and in food production, have strongly reduced energy/water consumption and led to new “functional” foods. The Knowledge-Base

9. What are the driving forces behind the Knowledge-Based Bio-Economy beyond competitiveness ? Secure a sustainable agriculture and fisheries production for a rising world population, on limited arable land and facing impacts of climate change; Secure the demand for renewable bio-resources for eco-efficient products and biofuels; Serve public health through safer, healthier and higher quality foods; Control and prevent epizootic and zoonoticdiseases like avian flu, and food related disorders, such as obesity.

10. What is the Knowledge-Based Bio- Economy offering? Improved health Food with improved nutritional value, increased food safety, new treatments, diagnosis and vaccines against human and animal diseases, improved feed… Sustainability and a cleaner environment Energy and water saving production and processes in agriculture and industry ; decreased dependence of fossil resources; Support to rural development Use of “set-aside”land; cultivation of new crops; decentralised production facilities Increased industrial competitiveness through innovative eco- efficient bio-based products

11. Knowledge Based Bio-Economy: Where are we? FP6 (2002-2006) Creation of 7 Technology Platforms relevant to the KBBE A number of relevant ERA-NETs KBBE stakeholder conference (Sep 2005) FP7 (2006-2013) Theme «Food, Agriculture and Biotechnology» to support the KBBE

12. Food, Agriculture and Biotechnology KBBE - Activity 2.1 Sustainable production and management of biological resources from land, forest and aquatic environments KBBE - Activity 2.2 “Fork to farm”: Food (including sea-food), health and well being KBBE - Activity 2.3 Life sciences, biotechnology and biochemistry for sustainable non-food products and processes

13. FP7 KBBE - Activity - Activity 2.1 Sustainable production and management of biological resources from land, forest and aquatic environments Enabling research (‘omics’ converging technologies, bio- informatics, biodiversity) for micro-organism, plants and animals Competitive, sustainable and multifunctional agriculture, forestry, fishery and aquaculture Animal health production and welfare; animal diseases (including zoo-noses) Marine resources, fishery, aquaculture Development of policy strategies for knowledge based bio- economy, agriculture, fishery as well as rural and coastal areas

14. FP7 KBBE - Activity 2.2 “Fork to farm”: Food (including sea-food), health and well being Consumer, societal, industrial and health aspects of food and feed Nutrition, diet related diseases and disorders Innovative food and feed processing Improved quality and safety of food, beverage and feed Total food chain concept

15. KBBE - Activity 2.3 Life sciences, biotechnology and biochemistry for sustainable non-foodproducts and processes 2.3.1. Novel sources of biomass and bioproducts 2.3.2. Marine and fresh-water biotechnology 2.3.3. Industrial biotechnology 2.3.4. Biorefinery 2.3.5. Environmental biotechnology 2.3.6. Emerging trends in biotechnology
