It will also serve to discuss the state of the art and to find out the common interests to be further jointly developed;<\/p><p>2. Subsequently, a training course on marine biotechnology will be developed to leverage early career leaders from different countries, particularly from Africa and Latin America;<\/p><p>3. The third product proposed for this Join Pilot Action is a workshop targeted at start-ups and new businesses opportunities in blue growth. It aims to leverage new start-ups and innovation in marine biotechnology, as well new projects, and services in the fields of marine biotechnology, including novel biomolecules with biological activities, renewable energy, aquaculture, environmental monitoring, maritime activities, information, and technology;<\/p><p>4. The last mission to be accomplished embraces the necessary meetings and discussions to come up with a roadmap and action plan for the development of marine biotechnology in the Atlantic. Possible outcomes of this last mission for the present project are new start-ups and R&amp;D projects with joint participation of academia-government-industry across the Atlantic.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ff9e23d e-con-full elementor-hidden-tablet e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"ff9e23d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5b0e369 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"5b0e369\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f18a9a8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f18a9a8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h1 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Impacts<\/h1>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6885598 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6885598\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Through networking and a co-design process, the\u00a0<strong>Joint Marine Biotechnology Initiative<\/strong>\u00a0for the Atlantic will improve the sustainable use of Atlantic Ocean biodiversity resources.
