On March 26, the BSR Stars S3 final seminar, Specializing in bio- and circular economy in the Baltic Sea Region, took us to a study tour in Hiedanranta, Tampere, where a housing and business area for 25 000 people is under development. The plan is to create a carbon-negative urban area where more energy and food is produced than consumed. The technologies making this possible include biochar, dry toilets and vertical farming already demonstrated on site. In the seminar, Hannu Koponen, Regional Council of Central Finland, presented the Regional Bioeconomy Profiles developed in RDI2CluB as a best practice case for smart specialization in bioeconomy. BSR Stars S3 project is coming to end now, but the multiplying work continues e.g. with planned platform project on smart specialization. Some of the key results of the BSR Stars S3 have been Policy Briefs published by Nordregio. These include topics of industrial symbiosis, inclusive digitalization, developing and managing innovation ecosystems in circular economy and building effective transnational partnerships. #BSRStarsS3 #EUSBSR #Interreg #smartspecialisation
