To me, Biotech Act II is a highly strategic and timely initiative that has strong potential to enhance Europes industrial competitiveness, accelerate de-fossilization, strengthen circular bioeconomy systems, and reduce dependence on imported fossil-based feedstocks through industrial biotechnology and biomanufacturing.

What they argued
Ghent University is a leading institution in securing Horizon Europe Cluster 6 funding, and therefore excellent in biotech and bioeconomy research. We furthermore have a strong portfolio of exploitation and (commercial) valorisation of results.
Microplastics pollution is a global but also an invisible problem. People are familiar with the images of seabirds that died of starvation from ingestion of bottle caps or toothbrushes. But the smaller the particles get, the more invisible they are but also the more severe the effects are expected to be due to possible translocation inside the body.
Representing a cluster of 7 European research consortia mandated by the European Commission in frame of the execution of research in nutrient (re)cycling in agriculture, we submit the joint policy brief attached to this feedback : RENU2CYCLE, NUTRI2CYCLE, NUTRI-KNOW, LEX4BIO, NUTRIBDUDGET, NOVAFERT, FERTIMANURE.
