BEAMING, THE BIOECONOMY ALLIANCE FOR STIMULATING INNOVATIVE AND INCLUSIVE GREEN TRANSITION
Budapest, (Hungary) January 18, 2024 – The Bioeconomy Excellence Alliance for Stimulating Innovative and Inclusive Green Transition (BEAMING) is an innovative project dedicated to advancing excellence and promoting innovation within the field of bioeconomy. The initiative seeks to address the need to enhance the competitiveness and visibility of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Europe, with a particular focus on Widening countries in Eastern European EU Member States, and the Western Balkans.
To this end, the BEAMING project will bring together HEIs from diverse regions, promoting the transfer of knowledge and technology, and fostering a culture of collaboration by focusing on various key objectives: strengthening the skills and capacities of early-career researchers in bioeconomy research, fostering institutional reform, promoting cross-disciplinary collaboration, enhancing technology transfer, and encouraging an inclusive institutional culture.
The initiative will follow a methodology based on the Quadruple Helix innovation ecosystem approach, which involves collaboration between HEIs, industry, government, and civil society. This approach will enhance the capacity for innovation and the practical application of research results, as well as engage the general public in processes facilitating changes in consumer behaviour and environmental awareness.
In conclusion, BEAMING is committed to fostering cross-border collaboration in the bioeconomy sector, with a focus on raising excellence and innovation. By bringing together higher education institutions, promoting an inclusive culture, and enhancing technology transfer, the project aims to strengthen the role of HEIs within their quadruple helix innovation system and facilitate institutional change. This collaboration is expected to improve the empowerment of HEIs to create a dynamic ecosystem that yields both regional and global benefits in the bioeconomy sector.
