Road to ERIC
This section highlights key milestones and strategic developments shaping IBISBA’s advancements towards an ERIC
The two-day IBISBA mini-summit, “Inspiring Biotech Solutions,” held at the prestigious Fondation Victor Lyon in France from January 31st to February 1st, was a pivotal moment that united a diverse array of researchers, political stakeholders, and industry representatives.
In March 2024, the European Commission released a communication titled “Building the Future with Nature: Boosting Biotechnology and Biomanufacturing in the EU.”
Following the successful completion of PREP-IBISBA, the ‘Preparatory Phase of IBISBA,’ significant strides have been made in laying the foundation for IBISBA’s legal status. Building upon the achievements of PREP-IBISBA, the focus now shifts to the DIALS project.
The IBISBA consortium made significant headway toward establishing a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) by 2025.
