Webinar: Circular and Bio Economy in the Wine Sector

Banning plastic straws and bags, encouraging cycling or walking are far from enough to prevent the extinction of natural habitats and animal species. Big steps are needed. This is how those who work with nature understand it – such as winemakers. The principles of the circular economy also bring economic opportunities.

All of this will be discussed at a webinar on the circular economy and the bio-economy in the wine sector. The webinar will take place on 15.7.2020 at 10.30. It is organized by a partnership within the Embrace project, of which the Primorska Technology Park is also a part.

Invited winemakers, farmers, family businesses and startups dealing with nutrition, as well as experts and decision makers in this field.

The webinar is organized by the Portuguese partner AVIPE and will be held in English.
