Brussels, Belgium (September 16, 2008)

The aim of this one-day event is to provide information on the Biorefinery Joint Call launched by Directorates E, G, I, and K from DG Research and Directorate D from DG Transport and Energy.

Underlining the relevance of the subject and the importance of the joint effort among different FP7 Themes, the European Commissioner for Science and Research Janez Potočnik will open the event.

The morning session will continue with a general presentation of the rationale for this Biorefinery Joint Call, its modalities for implementation, the call text and the different aspects that will need to be considered by the potential applicants in order to fully address the integration and multidisciplinary features of the joint call.

The afternoon programme is dedicated to a brokerage event. Participants will be allowed to present a "flash" 5-min. presentation (5 slides max.) related to project ideas, to their competence in the specific field, or to their interest to join consortia.

The Closing Session will be devoted to further Question and Answers and to the final remarks form Commission representatives.
