BIOECONOMY E-BROCHURE
"Bioeconomy e-brochure - general background information and recommendations on how the ecosystem surrounding bioeconomy researchers can strengthen the path to innovation even more effectively" c. For the implementation of our project we receive support in 7/2017. (VII.6.) Based on our successful application submitted according to the Ministry of Agriculture's instructions.
