Start year 2009 End year 2011 Funding (€) € 2,322,692 Website http://www.kg2.eurocean.org/proj.jsp?load=100177 Summary The Biotecmar project supports the development of a chain for the production of valuable ingredients using underexploited marine products derived from fishing, aquaculture, seaweed and food industry. Biotecmar, it is: Analysing the current blocking points for by-products use and studying the possible exploitation by value chains (by species, and by-product); Establishing an Atlantic network with connections between scientists, marine resources providers, manufacturers and users; Disseminating information among SMEs on the marine resource potential, processing methods, biological activities, traceability, regulation and market trends via the organization of seminars, workshops, training sessions, conferences, individual meetings, etc.; Supporting the industries/SMEs from Atlantic area to develop these biotechnologies.
