The second edition of BioInvestIT – the Bioeconomy Investment Forum dedicated to companies in the circular bioeconomy that are looking for investors and those research projects that want to establish new start-ups – is starting.
The initiative is organized by the SPRING Cluster in collaboration with the European Circular Bioeconomy Fund, Bio4dreams and with the support of a network of local partners.
BioInvestIT involves three stages:
PHASE 1 – PROJECT AND SME SEARCH AND SELECTION
Participants are invited to submit their ideas and proposals. The most interesting projects/SMEs will be selected by a technical committee (for a maximum of 10 projects/SMEs) and will enter phase 2 of the track.
A National Roadshow is planned in collaboration with local partners to allow companies and researchers to present their project in front of local investors and the innovation ecosystem. Projects considered most interesting by a local jury will then be admitted directly to the Investor Arena Meeting.
PHASE 2 – INVESTOR ARENA MEETING
National event (May 2025) where the most promising participants (maximum 10) will present their project to a panel of investors, experts and industry representatives, who will select up to 3 finalists to present at the European Investment Forum.
PHASE 3 – EUROPEAN INVESTMENT FORUM (BIOINVESTEU)
After the Investor Arena Meeting, the most promising finalists with global ambitions will have the opportunity to present their project in international arenas across Europe, organized by Cluster SPRING and its network of partners (Irish Bioeconomy Foundation, CLIB, BioBase Europe Pilot Plant, Bioeconomy for Change).
