General project objective:

The role of the international BIO-INSPIRE project is to support less developed regions in Europe, including Romania, in becoming active players in the bioeconomy. This objective will be achieved by strengthening local innovation capacities, fostering collaboration among clusters, and ensuring access to knowledge, networks, and funding. Ultimately, the initiative promotes a sustainable model of cooperation that can be replicated in other European regions as well.

Hygia involvement:

  • Project management: specific project management activities through which we will support AgroTransilvania Cluster in planning, implementing, and monitoring the activities carried out within BIO-INSPIRE, ensuring effective coordination among the partners involved and compliance with the established objectives, deadlines, and quality standards.
  • Financial management: we manage the budget allocated to the activities implemented by AgroTransilvania Cluster, through the responsible allocation of resources and monitoring of expenditures, in line with the requirements of the project and the funding authority.
