[CO2SMOS] Final Conference

Advancing the circular bio-industry

After four years of work the CO2SMOS project comes to an end and celebrates its achievements!

On 1 April, the project will hold its final conference in Brussels where it will showcase its main results: the CO2-based feedstocks and bioplastics that have been obtained and how they have been achieved, as well as how the knowledge gained on environmental, economic, social and political aspects can boost the deployment of these technologies.
