Bioeconomy Days in Sweden: A Deep Dive into Forest Sustainability and Innovation

On 17-18 September 2024, we visited Umeå, Northern Sweden, to explore the forest bioeconomy, a regional economic pillar for over 150 years. This tour offered insights into 100 years of history, modern forestry, and the challenges faced by forest owners today. We heard from local producers, innovators, cooperatives, and clusters about strengthening the bioeconomy. The SCALE-UP project consortium discussed the Innovation Support Programme, covering social and ecological innovations, and fostering EU project collaboration.

A guided forest walk showcased sustainable forestry practices and technology-driven approaches. We gained valuable insights into bio-innovations and enjoyed networking opportunities, truly advancing the SCALE-UP project and regional partnerships.
