Knowledge-Based Bio-Economy
(KBBE)
The KBBE address major challenges beyond growth and
employment:
The growing demand for safer, healthier and higher quality food;
The increasing risk of epizootic and zoonotic diseases like avian flu, and
food related disorders, such as obesity, and the need for successfully
preventing these;
The growing demand for sustainable production and use of renewable bioresources for eco-efficient products;
