From 18 Nov 2019 until 19 Nov 2019 - CIBIO-InBIO, Vairão, Portugal
BIOPOLIS PROJECT | OFFICIAL LAUNCH

The BIOPOLIS project addresses the upgrade of the research unit CIBIO (Research Centre in Biodiversity and Genetic Resources), an institution from a Widening Member Country (Portugal), to a Centre of Excellence (CoE) for R&D&I, through a teaming with a leading scientific institution, the University of Montpellier (France), and with the participation of a business partner, the Porto Business School (PBS; Portugal). Rooted on an ambitious Business Plan, the project envisions to establish BIOPOLIS as one of the best international Centres of Excellence in Environmental Biology, Ecosystem Research and AgroBiodiversity, with the capacity for spreading excellence towards innovation in the areas of Environment, Biodiversity and Agriculture, and thereby contributing to socioeconomic development at the regional and national levels.

BIOPOLIS Teaming project was approved by the European Commission under the scope of Horizon 2020 Widening programme, funded by the European Commission, national structural funds and private partners, representing the largest funding ever given to a research center in Portugal.

The official launch of BIOPOLIS will take place on November 18-19, 2019, at CIBIO-InBIO headquarters, Vairão, Portugal.
