Have you seen our new SeaMark promo video? Check it out to get an overview of the main aspects of the project and the partners involved. The video is intended for all audiences with an interest in seaweed, but especially companies and potential investors who can connect supply chain actors together to add European seaweed and seaweed extracts to both niche and commodity products. Watch this space over the coming weeks and months for further updates on how to get involved with the SeaMark project and its partners.

About us
SeaMark is a four-year project funded by Horizon Europe under contract no. 101060379. The project started on July 1, 2022. A consortium led by Ocean Rainforest comprising 25 international, cross-disciplinary partners has been awarded a prestigious €9 million Horizon Europe grant to upscale seaweed production and market applications across Europe. SeaMark will utilise recent ground-breaking selective breeding technologies within EU seaweed crop genetics to increase biomass yield. SeaMark aims to upscale circular ocean seaweed cultivation and land-based integrated multitrophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems and develop novel processing methods involving fermentation and biotransformation into twelve innovative seaweed-based products. The entire value chain will be analysed for techno-economic feasibility and socio-economic impact. SeaMark will also identify and quantify ecosystem services provided by seaweed cultivation. This will feed into a strategic development plan for upscaling seaweed production, and addressing the carrying capacity of seaweed cultivation in Europe. Due to the need to build more resilient food systems and decrease reliance on fossil-based products, it is necessary to grow the blue bio-economy through seaweed cultivation and product innovation. SeaMark will help fulfil the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (3, 8, 9, 12, 13 & 14) by developing this industry and, simultaneously, providing a positive impact on people and the planet.

We are here at the #MissionArena3 in #Amsterdam discussing LCAs in the #bluebioeconomy. Very interesting insights in the technical difficulties of creating a solid LCA for #seaweed products, taking into considerations other #sustainability aspects than emissions. Will the new #greenclaimsdirective help businesses by clarifying needs, or hinder by putting additional cost burdens for claims? Can we create standards on a level where all stakeholders approves on their robustness? Thank you Efthalia Arvaniti and Jean-Baptiste Thomas for excellent moderation, and all the speakers for great presentations!
💻 Full room at one of the first sessions of the #MissionArena3 "LCA in the Blue Bioeconomy: Ecosystem Services and Carrying Capacity" We are taking a deep dive to the importance and potential of LCAs and focusing on harmonizing them to ensure impactful outcomes, engaging #stakeholders to co-generate actionable insights. This and all other sessions summaries and presentations you will find from our website after the arena! 🌊 #BlueBioeconomy #Sustainability #LCAs #GreenClaims #LifeCycleAssesment #EUprojects #HorizonEurope Mission Ocean #MissionOcean Jean-Baptiste Thomas Margarida Costa Efthalia Arvaniti Sophie Koch Maris Stulgis Mauro CORDELLA SeaMark AlgaeProBANOS
