The circular economy is opening new business possibilities for industries and especially SMEs. What previously was considered as a waste becomes a raw material and can be considered as a new product. The project aims to kick start a circular transformation and make a measurable contribution to delivering the boost in economic development, environmental services and entrepreneurial innovation in rural areas. For this purpose viable multidisciplinary circular economy related SYMBIOMA Technology Innovation Platform in NPA region will be established and service package thereof created. The Platform service portfolio will include access to laboratory and pilot scale infrastructures and expertise to evaluate the valuable components from process side and waste streams and develop technology innovations, technology transfer support, knowledge about similar or compatible waste streams in the region in order to increase volume and improve possible profitability via aggregation, and assistance in exploring collaborative dynamics and business models such as clustering and industrial symbiosis. Food and beverage SMEs are vital in the NPA region and are therefore chosen as a pilot basis for project activities. Approach can be up-scaled and replicated across other industry segments in rural regions. To ensure relevance of the project activities and Platform services to needs of SMEs multifunctional and multidisciplinary team is gathered and consists of multidisciplinary university research groups, laboratory and pilot infrastructure providers, R&D services providing SMEs, manufacturing SMEs and and business support organizations. Project?s results will have an immediate exploitation reach to 75 potential SMEs, who will be approached during the implementation stage.
