EU4ALGAE

A collaborative European stakeholder forum

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Uniting European algae stakeholders to drive sustainable growth in the algae industry

EU4Algae Forum is the platform that enables algae interested parties, from all relevant public and private organizations, to jointly implement the EU Algae Initiative, while offering a forum to openly speak and discuss market driven breakthroughs for the sector. The main activities during the first contract included ensuring continuity of EU4Algae stakeholders forum, bringing in more algae species to the EU market either as traditional or novel food, or as food supplements, establishing the EU4Algae stakeholders forum, improving governance and the regulatory framework, improving the business environment, and accelerating research, knowledge, innovation and development.

Additionally, during the second contract, EU4Algae will further advance stakeholder engagement activities as well as developing an Algae Farmers’ Toolkit and organising the 2nd EU Algae Awareness Summit.  

The platform is a unique space for collaboration among European algae stakeholders, including algae farmers, producers, sellers, consumers, technology developers as well as business-support organisations, investors, public authorities, academia, researchers and NGOs. EU4Algae is directly connected to the main European algae initiatives from over 43 countries.
