About the project
The objective of KETBIO was to speed up the process of industrial exploitation and uptake of EU-funded KET Biotechnology project results by establishing a novel KET biotechnology cluster and delivering an innovative impact acceleration programme with and for the cluster, thus maximising (1) access to existing technology and its transfer activities and new cooperation partners throughout Europe for biotechnology projects, (2) exploitation of synergies and sharing of best practice beyond the original biotechnology projects scope, and (3) streamlining of activities of common interest relevant to biotechnology projects.
KETBIO brought the biotechnology community together in an interactive, vibrant forum, deploying latest technology to increase knowledge and reduce barrier to entry and interaction, and provide value-adding activities to the community while at the same time being accessible to stakeholders beyond biotechnology including society and policy groups.
