On a trial lecture and PhD defense at UiT

My good colleague from NIBIO Hilde Halland is defending her PhD on November 3, at the UiT- The Arctic University of Norway. The program starts at 1015 with her trial lecture: “Drivers and barriers for a sustainability transformation of Norwegian food systems”. Then, after a short break, she continues with the presentation of her PhD Thesis “Farm sustainability as a sustainability learning process in Arctic Norway” that I was co-supervisor.

Both the trial lecture and the PhD defense will be also broadcasted online: https://uit.no/tavla/artikkel/792605/disputas_-_cand_agric_hilde_halland

Workshop on matchmaking in the bioeconomy

Excellent discussions today at our workshop “How can we help SMEs towards circular economy business models?”. My talk was on “The emergence of bio-economy and the importance of matchmaking in value creation for biomass industries” where I discussed the new socio-economic paradigm that bioeconomy brings and how businesses, and especially SMEs, can flourish into this new reality.

Matchmaking –i.e., finding the right partner, becomes increasingly important for the successful shift towards increased circularity and opens the businesses for new opportunities.

The event was part of our SYMBIOMA project that is financed by Interreg NPA.
