SCALE-UP Project Presented at Clustering Event Promoting European Bioeconomy Collaboration


On July 5th, the renowned European project SCALE-UP took center stage at the Clustering event titled "Promotion of the Andalusian bioeconomy through European projects." Rafael Castillo, a consultant from the Technological Corporation of Andalusia (CTA), consortium member of SCALE-UP, delivered an insightful presentation on the project during the event. CTA, one of the consortium partners of SCALE-UP, organized this gathering, which brought together 18 initiatives focused on biomass utilization and the sustainable development of the Andalusian region.

During her presentation, Rafael Castillo provided attendees with an in-depth understanding of the SCALE-UP project, emphasizing its core objectives and addressing crucial issues related to fossil resource exploitation, risks associated with globalized supply chains for raw materials, and the challenges faced by rural regions in retaining the younger generation and creating viable job opportunities.

Rafael Castillo also shed light on the three innovative tools proposed by SCALE-UP to facilitate the transformation process. These tools include resource flow analysis, which offers circular bioeconomy solutions; a logistics tool for optimizing resource flows; and a quick impact assessment tool to determine the best possible decisions for sustainable outcomes.

The event, which highlighted the significance of cooperation in driving innovation and promoting the circular economy, featured oral presentations, an exhibition area, and networking opportunities. In addition, a comprehensive "Catalogue of Synergies" was designed to facilitate collaboration among European projects. This document compiles technical information on participating projects and identifies potential avenues for cooperation.

The Clustering event provided a valuable platform for knowledge exchange, fostering collaboration, and driving sustainable development within the Andalusian bioeconomy. The presence of the SCALE-UP project showcased its commitment to advancing the bioeconomy and its dedication to regional prosperity.
