While the Biotech Hub Meetings have a strategic focus, the Biotech Hub Workshops/Seminars for Stakeholder Engagement aim to engage scientific and industrial biotechnology stakeholders and empower them to make the most of their involvement in transnational RD&I. The Biotech Hub Workshops/Seminars for Stakeholder Engagement will have a different thematic focus and will e.g. facilitate hands-on exchange of ideas, demands and knowledge, leading to mutual understanding of the needs and strengths of each stakeholder and the value they bring to the development of innovative new biotechnology applications, or generate new skills or awareness of different aspects of research and development work.

After a very positive feedback on the European Biotechnology and Society Online Seminar Series a second series of online seminars were organised in the summer of 2021. Over the course of five weeks (from 9 June – 7 July 2021) and five seminars, the participants were delighted to hear presentations from 11 groups of speakers with diverse perspectives: academic and industry scientists, social and interdisciplinary researchers, and research funders. An international audience of 25-50 audience members joined the event live each week, with 139 registrants overall (each recording was also viewed 24-50 times afterwards). More information about the second seminar series is available on the event website.
