This project
develops a 'Development Capacity Index' (DCI) for biotech
companies in the new Member States, highlighting the growth
potential of healthcare biotech. The project delivers a
publicly accessible database of information, enabling
companies to be profiled among important stakeholders
including VCs, equity investors, media, analysts and makes it
easier for Biotech to Biotech and Pharma to Biotech
partnerships.

Bioethical practices
http://www.europabio.org/ethics_and_dialogue.htm
|
 |
|
The project aims at improving understanding of bioethical
issues by using the daily practices of biotechnology
companies, to elaborate clear and independent positions based
on regularly updated scientific and technological data. It
will also contribute to include industry into the dialogue
with the largest audiences

Consumer Choice |
|
|
|
“Consumer Choice” project finds that
Europeans are unconcerned about GM foods
European Parliament Member Robert Sturdy (UK-EPP) hosted a
press conference for the Consumer Choice project at the
European Parliament on October 14th. The EU funded study,
entitled Do European Consumers Buy GM Foods? (“Consumer Choice”),
explored whether consumers buy GM-labelled products when
presented with them in supermarkets or corner grocery stores.
The project report “Consumer choice - do European consumers
buy GM foods?” was released on 14.10.08 at the European
Parliament. The project found that Europeans buy GM products
when they’re offered for sale.
The full report and press
release can be found by clicking
here. A sample of coverage (Euractiv) is
here.

The objective of LifeCompetence is to implement
state-of-the-art competence management tools and processes,
that master these challenges and make the competences in
ongoing and future projects in the LSH priority accessible
towards the key target groups. The purpose is to leverage the
research investments made by the EC by enhancing the research
collaboration process between academia and industry, in
particular SMEs.
The Life Competence Webportal
EuropaBio calls for support to
make EU life science and biotechnology research information
available to patients, industry and interested stakeholders

The overall aim of this Co-ordination Action is both, firstly,
to anticipate the societal and ethical issues likely to arise
as nanobiotechnologies develop and, secondly, to use the
lessons from the European GM debate to respond pro-actively
and responsibly to the probable public, media and political
concerns.

Establishing a European Plant Genomics and Biotechnology
Platform, PGBTP, involving key stakeholders from academia,
industry, the EU, Member States and citizens' representatives
will play a key role in addressing societal concerns about
plant biotechnology. It aims to develop policy options on
plants for healthy lifestyles and for sustainable
development to drive the European plant science R&D sector
towards achieving the Lisbon Summit objective, for Europe to
be "the most competitive knowledge based economy in the world
by 2010".

This SSA is to establish an European Technology Platform for
white (industrial) biotech, involving the key stakeholders
from academia, industry, the Commission and the European
Parliament, Member States and citizens' representatives. This
will be essential to unleash this exploitation potential,
while removing barriers, setting out coherent policies and
creating broad public awareness of the potential benefits to
society at large. This project will contribute to strengthen
the European Research Area and to achieve the Lisbon
objectives by countering the current fragmention, by agreeing
on a coherent Strategic Research Agenda and by delivering an
Action Plan to implement the recommendations of the Vision
Paper. |

This
project aims to increase the number of SMEs, particularly
high growth technology companies, to invest more in R&D
through participating in FP7. The project also aims to
overcome existing barriers to collaborations between
academic research and corporate groups and SMEs, and
improve the effectiveness of knowledge transfer and
financing of further development, through specialized
assistance and training to make these collaborations
materialize
