It constitutes a cornerstone of the Union's economic resilience and its innovation, competitiveness and sustainability agenda. Moreover, the bioeconomy is integral to the European Green Deal and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), underpinning efforts to ensure food security, advance climate adaptation, safeguard biodiversity, and enable the transition to a low-carbon economy. Yet despite this, investment in the bioeconomy falls short by an estimated e121.8 billion a year in Europe and as much as 777 billion a year globally. This report examines the state of the bioeconomy, the structural drivers of the investment gap, and innovative financing mechanisms to mobilize the capital required to realise its full potential.European Investment Bank The1775988MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911041710703321Investment Gaps to Achieve Sustainable Targets in the Bioeconomy4458686UNINA
