ValueConnect
- Connecting forest-bioeconomy actors
The purpose of the project is to recognized and evaluate new possibilities to create value in the forest-bioeconomy sector. This is done by 1) recognizing new or underutilized stakeholder combinations, 2) creating service prototypes together with them and 3) evaluating the service concepts in practice.
This is one of the twelve Tandem Forest Value -projects – bilateral research programs within forestry and the forest products industry. The purpose is to strengthen and develop bilateral research collaboration in a durable fashion between actors in the field of forestry and industrial forestry in Finland and Sweden. Tandem Forest Values started as Sweden’s official gift to Finland’s centenary of independence celebrations in 2017. The duration of the ValueConenct is 2019-2020.
