Bioeconomy business accelerator, BioBoosters by Jamk, and the BioBoosters community around the Baltic Sea Region are employing a business-driven hackathon concept to boost circular transition of the bioeconomy sectors.
This publication explores nine innovation journeys of leading bioeconomy companies around the Baltic Sea that shared their challenges at the BioBoosters Hackathons organized in autumn 2023 and spring 2024. With the support of the BioBoosters, these companies apply open innovation to find co-operation partners and solutions for greater circularity, sustainability, and profitability of their operations. BioBoosters hackathon leverages the networks and knowhow of nine regional bioeconomy innovation systems connecting cross-sectoral and international expertise with open innovation excellence. The nine impact stories highlight the barriers, enablers, and success factors of circular transition in the bioeconomy sectors of the Baltic Sea Region. They also showcase the impact of open innovation and inter-regional co-operation. The lessons learned from the hackathons boosted by the international innovation community are recounted and the conclusion is clear – BioBoosters Hackathon is making an impact!
