The Blue Bioeconomy defined as ‘the production and conversion of renewable marine biological resources into value added products, such as food, feed, bio-based products and bioenergy’ entails a large set of opportunities for European coastal communities. Innovative business models based on circularity; short-chains, digital solutions and ecosystem contributions offer the chance to stabilize and create new enterprises and jobs also for the lower-educated; while transforming remote, rural areas also into interesting, revitalized, climatefriendly places to live. However, blue bioeconomy actors struggle with challenges related to technology, lack of knowledge & skills or regulatory barriers. BlueBioClusters brings together 13 support organizations from across Europe, all of them highly engaged in their 9 regions in assisting start-ups, companies and policy makers to make best use of innovations. They have joined forces to improve, develop and implement new support tools and methods based on systematic collection, benchmarking and joint knowledge creation on *blue biobased value chains, practice cases and incentives, WP1; *ecosystem service valorization, WP2; *technology needs, identification and transfer of solutions, WP3; *start-ups/SMEs; experts and support mechanisms (coaching; co-creation), WP4; as well as *‘Communities of Practices’ to foster long-term stakeholder cooperation within and across the regions; WP5. While we expect to create long-lasting impact already within the project lifetime itself by engaging with hundreds of actors within our regions to stimulate collaboration and actions for change; activities are designed to be continued post-project being also open for other Blue Regions, clusters and individual companies to join. To that end the inter-active BlueBioCluster portal is not only a repository of the projects’ outputs, but is set up in such way, that it will be continuously updated and maintained by and with its users also post-project

蓝色生物经济的定义是“生产可再生海洋生物资源并将其转化为增值产品，如食品、饲料、生物基产品和生物能源”，这为欧洲沿海社区带来了大量机会。以循环为基础的创新商业模式；短链、数字解决方案和生态系统贡献提供了稳定和创造新的企业和就业机会的机会，同时也为受教育程度较低的人提供了机会；同时也将偏远的农村地区转变为有趣、充满活力、气候友好的居住地。然而，蓝色生物经济参与者正在努力应对与技术、缺乏知识和技能或监管障碍有关的挑战。BlueBioCluster汇集了来自欧洲各地的13个支持组织，所有这些组织都在其9个地区高度参与帮助初创企业、公司和政策制定者充分利用创新。它们联手改进、开发和实施新的支助工具和方法，其基础是*蓝色生物价值链、实践案例和激励措施的系统收集、基准和联合知识创造，WP1；*生态系统服务定价，WP2；*技术需求、解决方案的确定和转让，WP3；*初创企业/中小企业；专家和支助机制(指导；共同创造)，WP4；以及*“实践社区”，以促进区域内和区域间的长期利益攸关方合作；WP5。虽然我们希望通过与我们区域内的数百个行为者接触来刺激合作和变革行动，从而在项目生命周期内产生长期影响；但项目后的活动将继续进行，其他蓝色区域、集群和单个公司也可以加入。为此，互动BlueBioCluster门户不仅是项目产出的储存库，而且以这样的方式建立，即它将由其用户以及与其用户一起在项目后持续更新和维护
