SAFER, or Smart Atlantic Seafood Clusters, project will kick off the 15th of November in County Donegal (Ireland).
This project is aimed to improve the innovation performance of the seafood industry by increasing technology adoption and transnational cooperation to give response to the challenges faced by a sector identified as key for the smart growth of the participating regions.
SAFER will drive innovation with a clear ambition of expanding the results into other Atlantic Area regions, including Atlantic Canada, where this sector is considered as high-importance.
This first meeting will serve as a 'capacity building' event to prepare the partnership to set up, manage and monitor the processes at the core of our project.
About the project
SAFER, co-funded by the European Union through the Atlantic Area Programme, is a 3-year project led by ERNACT bringing together partners from Bretagne (France), Border, Midland and Western (Ireland), Northern Ireland (UK), Norte (Portugal) and Cantabria (Spain).
