SBEP launches its first Thematic Portfolio Call

The Sustainable Blue Economy Partnership (SBEP) has launched its first Thematic Portfolio Call for Interest, open until 30 October 2025. This call invites ongoing research and innovation (R&I) projects, whether funded by SBEP or by other national, regional, or EU programmes, to join one of two thematic networking portfolios:

  • Sustainable small-scale fisheries

  • Algae cultivation and circular blue bioeconomy

Selected projects will collaborate over a two-year period (2026–2028) to shape joint roadmaps, boost their visibility, and gain access to new collaboration opportunities, strategic dialogues, and key SBEP events.
