BioFairNet Showcases Circular Bioeconomy Research at AperiScienzaTelmica 2025

BioFairNet participated in AperiScienzaTelmica – Conoscere la Ricerca del DSGE, the annual outreach event organised by the Department of Legal and Economic Sciences (DSGE) of UnitelmaSapienza, held on 28 November 2025 in Rome. Designed to bring scientific research closer to the public, the event offered an informal and interactive setting where visitors could explore current research topics and engage directly with the university’s research groups.

As a partner of the consortium, Unitelma presented the work of its Bioeconomy in Transition Group (BiTRG), highlighting the strategic importance of the circular bioeconomy in Europe and showcasing several EUfunded initiatives, including BioFairNet.

AperiScienzaTelmica included a variety of interactive activities, from sustainabilityfocused games to thematic presentations across law, economics, and technology. This multidisciplinary environment created opportunities to engage with participants interested in innovation and regional development, while the informal aperitivo encouraged open conversations and exchange.

The session titled “Chi vuol essere sostenibile?” offered visitors a series of interactive tasks designed to introduce key concepts of the bioeconomy and its role as a new paradigm for sustainable living. Within this context, the BioFairNet project was presented to participants interested in understanding how biobased solutions can support Europe’s transition toward more resilient and circular regional systems.

Among the international initiatives showcased by the BiTRG, the project contributed concrete insights into how biobased approaches can support fair and resilient value chains across Europe. The event created space to present its objectives and methodologies to a diverse audience and to discuss how research can inform practical regional transitions.

Participation in AperiScienzaTelmica strengthened ongoing collaboration with UnitelmaSapienza and reinforced the consortium’s commitment to connecting research with societal needs. Engaging in events of this kind helps ensure that the project’s work remains visible, accessible, and relevant to broader discussions on the circular bioeconomy.

On 25 June (11:00–11:45 CET), BioFairNet invites stakeholders to join a dynamic hybrid event exploring how bioeconomy and circular approaches can drive Europe’s sustainable transition.
On 28 May 2026, as part of the eighth edition of the National Bioeconomy Day promoted by the SPRING Italian Circular Bioeconomy Cluster with Assobiotec-Federchimica, BioFairNet ran an online workshop titled “Assessing sustainability in emerging bio-based value chains.” Held from 10:00 to 12:00 CET, the session was delivered by project partners UNITELMA Sapienza and the University of Ferrara. It centred on Environmental and Social Life Cycle Assessment (LCA and S-LCA), showing how these methods quantify environmental and social impacts, expose trade-offs, and identify where bio-based systems can realistically be improved across value chains and regional contexts.
On 14–15 May 2026, the BioFairNet project took part in the “Renaissance in Economics” International Conference, held in Rome. The event focused on how economic thinking can respond to today’s global challenges, including climate transition and social inequalities.
