    Hi!

    I am trying to develop this project and looking for partners who can contribute to the successful application.

    A2B – Academic entrepreneurship as a driver for innovation and sustainable development of SMEs
    Improving innovation capacities in our Mediterranean territories is a necessity to strengthen and consolidate a knowledge society. It will help us face future possible economic crisis. This project aims to contribute to the innovation and sustainable development of SMEs by proposing solutions based on academic entrepreneurship. The A2B intends to carry out an analysis of the needs and opportunities of sustainable development in the Mediterranean area, as well as to map the existing knowledge in 4 key areas: biopharmacy and biomedicine, food biotechnology, environment, and water management, based on the partner entities. A competition and ideas acceleration program will then be launched with a view to proposing solutions (products or services) to the identified problems that are sustainable not only at an environmental level, but also at an economic level. In this way, we hope to contribute to the sustainable development of SMEs and to enhance the knowledge generated in universities, bringing them closer to the business field.

    We are looking for SMEs and Universities/Research Centers in the agri-food and environment areas, or others that can serve as an interface to all 4 areas. Any partner in the area of entrepreneurship / business will be welcome!

    Thank you!

    Few of our projects
    – ‘NEX-LABS’ ENI CBC MED project: ENI CBC MED project: is a €3.4 million project that aims to support the implementation of clean technologies for the sustainable and resilient growth of agri-food sector production based on more efficient use of energy (renewable/solar solutions) and water (wastewater treatment, water harvesting or reuse solutions) in Mediterranean Partner Countries region thanks to the contribution of ICT such as blockchain technology, Internet or the Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning and Big Data. http://www.enicbcmed.eu/projects/nex-labs

    – ‘Closing the gap between fork and farm for circular nutrient flows’ project aims at the implementation and exploration of innovative Nitrogen & Phosphorus recovery solutions for the utilization of human sanitary waste from urban settlements and its conversion into safe bio-based fertilisers for agricultural production (HORIZON-CL6-2022-ZEROPOLLUTION-01-02, Project number: 101081883, budget: 7.5 million).

    – FlexCHESS aims to revolutionize the existing paradigms of energy storage by developing a multi-level flexibility approach based on Virtual Energy Storage System (VESS) that can store surplus energy through hybrid energy storage systems (HESS) and modify their behaviour and architecture to support unpredictable growth and change of demand, climate and market (HORIZON-CL5-2022-D3-01, project number: 101096946, budget 3.6 Million)

    -FoodE ( KA220) will raise agri-food entrepreneurs’ and young farmers’ awareness of food loss and its impact on the environment through providing them with opportunities to engage in knowledge-exchanges with experts, create affiliations to improve their employability, training for becoming FoodE ambassadors and providing them with possibilities to communicate with old farmers and agri-food entrepreneurs that will help them design solutions, products and/or services for tackling the
    food loss issue.

    Hi Leandro,

    Your A2B project sounds like an exciting initiative, bridging academic entrepreneurship with sustainable development for SMEs in key sectors like biopharmacy and environment. I’d love to explore potential collaboration opportunities. The call center industry, which uses software like https://www.mightycall.com/blog/call-center-software/ could serve as a great model for how technology and innovation streamline processes, from real-time analytics to call routing, enabling businesses to grow efficiently and sustainably. This approach could be adapted for other sectors, enhancing communication between academia and SMEs. Let’s connect and discuss how we can contribute to this innovative project
