This document individuates an action plan to boost the digitalization of bio-based value chains. The plan is intended to be a starting point for future projects tackling this issue.
Pre-requisites for the implementation of the action plan are the availability of funding at regional or macro-regional level and the involvement of a consortium of engaged entities.
The plan can be implemented as a whole project or some of the proposed actions experimented as a pilot.
The validity of the plan is transversal for different value chains with traditional approach, like the natural fibres one, so it can be adapted to different sectors according to regional specificity and priority, in order to reach a higher return on investment.
This report includes also the summary of Action 1 “Identify innovation fields to transform targeted industries and value chains” and Action 2 “Roadmap to trigger policy initiatives and further actions”
