BIOVEGEN participated on June 28 in the third VATC seminar focused on the Agro sector, aimed at providing a broad perspective and addressing questions about the transfer process to the agricultural environment, stimulating innovation in the sector from the academic setting, understanding the involved stakeholders in this process, the possible public and private funding to facilitate the market entry of CSIC technologies, as well as current trends in agricultural matters and how to take advantage of them.
