After receiving over 40 interesting applications, the AlgaeProBANOS project selected ten startups to receive €10,000 worth of mentoring services. The chosen startups come from across Europe – from Latvia to Turkey and Norway to France, and work on various innovations, from algae-based leather and rubber replacements to satellite observation of algal blooms.
