The European Institute for Innovation and Technology (EIT) has recently launched a call to join the new knowledge and innovation community (KIC) on water. A KIC is a community where the three sides of the so-called "Knowledge Triangle" (education, research and innovation achieved by industry) come together in order to create succesful innovative businesses and upskill the workforce of the future.

To inform all interested parties about this call, the EIT organises an online information session on the 5th of March. This is part of the European Ocean Days 2025, organised by the European Commission’s  Directorate-General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (DG MARE).

If you want to follow it online you do not need to register and the streaming link will be published on this website. However if you want to be present in person you need to register here. There is only one participant per organisation allowed so it is best to register as soon as possible. The deadline for registration is the 28th of February.

RUSTICA - Converting organic residues into bio-based fertiliser products

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’.  RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
