Finland: Results Bioeconomy Transformation programme

The transition from fossil-based raw materials to renewables has already begun, and tomorrow's bioeconomy is being created today. As part of its Bioeconomy Transformation spearhead programme, VTT has developed technologies suitable for application in new kinds of value chains. In these, the value created by Finland's agro and forest biomass is efficiently exploited as food, fibre products, chemicals and fuels.
The programme has resulted in the development of new products and technologies for industry; the establishment of internationally award-winning spin-offs; and large numbers of patents, scientific publications and doctoral dissertations (News Item VTT, 10 March 2017).
