The European bioeconomy already represents 11% of EU GDP (EU JRC report 2020). The bio- based industries contributed 814 billion euros to the EU\u2019s economy in 2019 (The European Bioeconomy in Figures 2008-2019).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new Country Report on Poland builds on the first edition released in 2018. It maps out the potential for bio-based growth in the country, highlighting untapped and under- exploited bio-based resources. The report helps to identify new opportunities for the primary sectors, the food and beverage sector, the blue bioeconomy, bio-based chemicals, etc. to valorise side streams and waste that today have low or no value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further developing Europe\u2019s bio-based industries in Poland presents opportunities for domestic and foreign investment at a time when green growth is high on the EU agenda. In addition, the EU continues efforts to increase participation in innovation and research of the EU-13 Widening Countries, which includes Poland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BIC is a partner in expanding industrial bio-based activities across Europe. To this end, we are focusing on assisting countries that want to benefit more from their enormous potential for a bioeconomy given their availability of sustainable feedstock and presence of innovation centres. Poland\u2019s strong industries in the primary and chemical sectors, combined with its well-organised innovation support infrastructure will make it possible to accelerate bio- based industrial activities and the bioeconomy in the country and the region in the short term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe hope that as this report is disseminated, it will promote the bioeconomy and its potential in Poland; that it will motivate all stakeholders \u2013 industry, policymakers and academia \u2013 to exploit the opportunities for investment and greening the economy. Poland has a strong agricultural sector, which can be the basis for an innovative and sustainable bio- based industry in the country, creating jobs and growth,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>said BIC Executive Director Dirk Carrez<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
