Summary 10 partners with proved experience in the Blue Bioeconomy field from 8 Med countries and more than 300 Med stakeholders from universities, research centres, public authorities, business support organizations and Med multilateral organizations worked together to create the Blue Biotechnologies (BBt) community in the Mediterranean. The exploitation of marine bio-resources through biotechnological solutions is a field with massive potential for innovation and economic growth. This field is a relatively young discipline, so opportunities and key enabling factors needed a coordination. B-Blue project aimed at gathering the key actors of the Med BBt sector and increase their innovation capacity and their coordination in order to unlock the innovation potential in the field through joint transnational initiatives, involving also organizations from the Southern Shore of the Mediterranean.
