BioFairNEt

Bioeconomy and Circular Economy Fair Network

A fair and accessible network for reducing greenhouse gas activities with circular and bio- economy models.

13 partners

joining forces to drive the sustainable transition of agriculture and mining, the two greenhouse gas-intensive sectors targeted by the BIOFAIRNET project, through digital collaboration and bio-circular innovation

The BIOFAIRNET project is paving the way for a sustainable and fair bio-circular economy across Europe and beyond. By focusing on the agriculture and mining sectors, it promotes the co-creation and testing of innovative solutions through a digitally cooperative network. With a strong emphasis on circularity, stakeholder engagement, and systemic transformation, BIOFAIRNET empowers a more resilient, low-carbon industrial future.

What’s happening

Biofairnet Contributes to Bioeconomy Day 2026 with a Transferability Webinar

The Biofairnet project will take part in Bioeconomy Day 2026 through a dedicated online workshop organised by project partner UNITELMA Sapienza. The webinar, “Assessing sustainability in emerging bio-based value chains,” will explore how Environmental and Social Life Cycle Assessment (LCA and S-LCA) methodologies can be applied to evaluate the sustainability of innovative bio-based systems.

Biofairnet at the 9th Environmental Conference of Macedonia

The Biofairnet project was present at the 9th Environmental Conference of Macedonia (EcoMacedonia 2025). Project partner CERTH (Centre for Research and Technology Hellas) represented the project and contributed to the scientific programme through a poster presentation delivered by researcher Lefteris Melas. The event brought together researchers, policymakers, industry stakeholders, and environmental experts to discuss pressing challenges and innovative solutions in sustainability and environmental management.

SEEDS–BioFairNet Annual Conference 2026

The SEEDS–BioFairNet Annual Conference 2026 brings together scholars, PhD candidates, and early-career researchers to explore how Circular Economy and Bioeconomy approaches can contribute to tackling climate change and supporting the EU's sustainability transition. Hosted at the University of Ferrara in conjunction with the Horizon Europe BioFairNet project.

Pre-Conference Workshops (2 December 2026)

BioFairNet invites you to the two simultaneous pre-conference workshops open the SEEDS–BioFairNet Annual Conference on 2 December: one for early and emerging researchers, and one at the intersection of engineering design, AI, and the circular economy. Both are free to attend, with or without presenting.
