About me
I promote sustainable blue/green bioeconomy, and I put my weight on innovation, technology and knowledge transfer and on building innovation ecosystems to thrive, by connecting people and ideas.
My organisation
The SUBMARINER Network brings together actors from the Baltic Sea Region to promote innovative and sustainable uses of marine & aquatic resources to protect our marine environment and promote sustainable economic development. The Network connects authorities, research institutions, civil society, and private companies, to integrate local perspectives into transnational frameworks. SUBMARINER coordinates many signature European blue bioeconomy projects, such as AlgaeProBanos, Baltic MUPPETS, TETRAS, ULTFARMS and BlueMission BANOS among others, promoting demonstrations of solutions, company involvement, supporting also the "blue on land", and bringing the Baltic Sea closer to the world.
s.Pro - sustainable projects GmbH holds the permanent secretariat of the SUBMARINER Network since 2014. s.Pro leads two key DG MARE contracts supporting the implementation of EU Algae Initiative for a resilient and strong sustainable EU algae industry, namely the EU4Algae Stakeholder Forum and the Algae Industry Study.
