The Biotecmar project supports the development of a chain for the production of valuable ingredients using underexploited marine products derived from fishing, aquaculture, seaweed and food industry. Biotecmar will - analyse the current blocking points for by-products use and studying the possible exploitation by value chains (by species, and by-product). - establish an Atlantic network with connections between scientists, marine resources providers, manufacturers and users. - disseminate information among SMEs on the marine resource potential, processing methods, biological activities, traceability, regulation and market trends via the organization of seminars, workshops, training sessions, conferences, individual meetings, etc. - support the industries/SMEs from Atlantic area to develop these biotechnologies.
