RDI2Club & ConnectedByBiobord

Vides risinājumu institūts together with the #Biobord network organized an online workshop “New technologies for monitoring of large-bodied wild-animals and free-ranging livestock: challenges and opportunities”, which took place on the 5th of May 2021. The purpose of the workshop was to share the experience on the use of drones and other remote sensing technologies for monitoring large-bodied wild animals and free-ranging livestock in Finland, Latvia, Norway and Poland. 🦌🌲 Experts discussed challenges and opportunities for technology adoption in wildlife management, as well as raised the needs and ideas of the future transnational cooperation. The workshop was dedicated to wildlife management institutions, land use management organizations (forestry, agriculture), nature conservation and protection institutions, hunters, veterinary services, owners of free-ranging livestock, researchers, university students, technology developers, infrastructure developers, operators of hunting tourism, and policymakers. 🤝 Please find here the workshop materials: http://www.videsinstituts.lv/en/about-ies/news/video-new-technologies-for-wild-and-free-ranging-animal-monitoring.html And joint the discussion 👉 biobord.eu #MadewithInterreg #interregbsr #bioeconomy Interreg Baltic Sea Region EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region JAMK biotalous Høgskolen i Innlandet

Month 7/9 done! 💪 Interreg Baltic Sea Region project ConnectedByBiobord is coming close to its end, and lots of interesting activities have taken place in April. Here are few: * Follow-up webinar for the #transnational food #hackathon Food Hack by Biobord, with 50 participants around #BSR. In the event audience received inspirational business case stories about alternative proteins and functional foods, and the winning team of Food Hack received more private expert consultation to take their business and innovations further. 👂🤩 * Forest Hack by Biobord took place 13.04. - 14.04.2021 and gathered together nine #forestry related organizations around Scandinavia. Results included ideas of #digitalforestry living labs and data platforms. 🌲😲 * Creation of digital learning material for monitoring wild animal and free-ranging animal monitoring. Will be published soon! 💻👨‍🏫 * Writing of an #innovation guide that complies learnt lessons and best practices from the innovation pilots of #connectedbybiobord ℹ️ * Great OnStage #webinars.

Digital living labs and data platforms future of forestry ? 🤩🌲📡 Transnational forest data hackathon/co-creation event, Forest Hack by Biobord, took place 13.04. - 14.04.2021 and gathered together 9 forest, technology and data management organizations from Finland, Sweden and Norway to co-create and network. 💡🤝 The aim of the event was to establish joint initiatives (such as projects) and find new business potentials from the forest value chain. Event was part of the forest innovation pilot of Interreg Baltic Sea Region and EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region flagship -project ConnectedByBiobord (capacity for innovation). Co-creation of experts 🤜🤛 Forest Hack by Biobord was supported by sectoral agency Suomen metsäkeskus - Finlands skogscentral (Finnish Forest Centre) that encouraged hackers for new data based solutions and use of new technologies within in the industry. Co-creation was supported with excellent keynotes from Jussi Lappalainen - Finnish Forest Centre and Sverker Danielsson - Mistra Digital Forest. Both keynotes painted the picture of current digitalization of the industry, as well as inspired for new innovations. Accurate data and tracing quality as challenges 🤔 Two challenges were selected for hacking; 1. Methods for more detailed and accurate data from forests ➡️ A digital forestry lab was discovered as one potential solution 2. Accurate data from forests and tracing quality for increased value creation ➡️ Group came up with an idea of a joint data platform for accurate data from forest and for better tracing quality for increased value creation. Transnational co-operation as a result 💁 Next step of the process is project planning between hackers. Several regional, national and transnational discussions and research are needed before funding can be applied but the most important step of finding joint understanding, has been established. Forest Hack by Biobord built a strong basis for the stakeholder co-operation and started, hopefully, a long joint journey towards more efficient and valuable forestry 😎 Updates for the process coming later this spring! 👉Biobord.eu #MadewithInterreg #bioeconomy #BSR
