This survey is part of the project "BIObec - Preparing the creation of Bio-Based Education Centres (BBEC) to meet industry needs and boost the contribution of the bioeconomy to societal challenges (Grant Agreement 101023381)”, funded by the BBI-JU within the EU Horizon 2020 framework programme (https://biobec.eu/).

BIObec aims to build bridges between the bio-based industry and the education system by interlinking universities, innovation labs, and R&D centres with industrial actors and regions. In order to achieve this, the project proposes a holistic framework that merges the traditional perspective of an educational centre with the idea of a knowledge hub.

Before this survey, 19 focus group have been implemented across Europe, with the participation of 98 stakeholders from the industry, administration, educational organizations and universities that gave us a general framework about what BBEC should be.

The aim of this survey is to know which are the needs, opportunities, and expectations that you, as stakeholders, have regarding what BBEC should be. To do so, we kindly ask you to answer the following questions.

Note that we will analyse the data gathered from all the stakeholders together. This will provide a complete picture of the situation in your sector.

All the information provided will be treated statistically and anonymously.

Completing the full survey takes around 10 minutes.
