harbourinMonaco

The new Biomarine International Clusters Association (BICA)
with Prince Albert as honorary chair, is now established with
headquarters in Monaco. The board consists of global biomarine networkers teaming up with the founders MarLife
and Biomarine Business Convention.
Øystein Lie and Pierre Erwes met in Paris in December to sum up a
busy autumn preparing the new BICA for an even more busy
2014.
- The BICA is setting sail aiming to build a powerful association of
clusters engaged in global and local biomarine innovation and entrepreneurship, concludes Mr Erwes and Mr Lie.
The association, registered in Monaco with Prince Albert as honorary chair and the tasks of the new body, was discussed and outlined during the Biomarine Business Convention i Halifax in
September 2013, where the Prince confirmed his endorsement.
In short BICA will seek to represent the marine global community
when communicating with regulators and authorities in developing
acts and regulatories. BICA will act as an extended arena for business
and investment opportunities and hold a dynamic information directory of relevant marine data.
The BICA board:
- His Excellency Bernard Fautrier , CEO of Prince Albert II of
Monaco foundations: bfautrier@gouv.mc
- Deborah Mosca, Chief Executive Officer, MCOI - Marine Bio-Technologies Center of innovation: dmosca@mbcoi.net
- Ilaria Nardello, Marine Biotechnology Research Coordinator, National University of Ireland, Galway, inardello@marine.ie
- Oystein Lie, CEO MarLife, Oystein.Lie@forskningsparken.no
- Pierre Erwes, Executive Chairman BioMarine, pierre.erwes@biomarine.org
One of the first tasks for the BICA board will be to engage an
excecutive team, which is on the agenda early 2014.

Marine business centered in Oslo

Oslo's first co-working space for marine business and innovation
will materialize early January 2014 at Norway’s main interface
between Academia and industry, Oslo Science Park. The business
centre will host marine companies and provide access to state of
the art offices, meeting rooms and research facilities in addition to
being head quarter of MarLife. The construction commenced mid
October this year. It is anticipated that the hub will be supplied
with more infrastructure of relevance for marine innovation in the
years to come like lab customized experimental facilities, lab hotels, incubator etc.

Diplomatic efforts at MarLife

Lim Shrimp Organization (LSO) visited MarLife the 18th of October
2013 at Oslo Science Park accompanied by the Chinese Ambassador to Norway, Zhao Jun.
Øystein Lie invited Lim Shrimp Organization to establish an office
at MarLife Business Centre. Lie also discussed with the Ambassador
how the relationship Norway-China was developing and potentially
improving. Ambassador Zhao replied that the relationship was still
very challenging, but the Marine Business Centre initiative would
definitely contribute in a positive way. The marine sector in one of
the most important in the Norwegian-Chineese relations.

Opportunities in microalgae

Microalgae has vast genetic diversity and versatile cultivating options. A lot is going globally in the field, from basic R&D to scaled
production and marketing a vast array of products.
MarLife are into a series of microalgae analyses and reports, the
first of which is carried out as a joint delivery from the Blue Bio project. The report is spanning from describing the biology of interesting
target algae, landscape of R&D groups and commercial players, outlooks on trends and developments etc.
Currently, we are planning establishing an experimental scale microalgae facility in Oslo Science Park in collaboration with Oslotech
AS. People involved at MarLife headquarter in the micro algae efforts
are: Jon Aulie,Pål Myhre, Sytse Ybema and Lene Jahnsen.

Dialogue academia/business

The MarLife miniseminar in December created a vibrant dialogue
between the Academia and the business players. At the meeting,
held at NMBU, important problems like dark muscle spots and Piscine reo virus and heart and muscle inflammation was on the
agenda together with Zebrafish as cost efficient model for fundamental disease studies.
The enhance dialogue academia/business is not least spot on in
the BioVerdi report on a common biotechnology platform for
innovation and entreprenurship. The report, where the marine
sector is significant, is to be published in 2014. It is now in the
conclusive prossess, and will be finalized early in the new year.

amount of future marine and biotech opportunities in Oslo.
At the center of Oslo's marine innovation gravity is the network
MarLife, lead by professor Øystein Lie. The senior marine
entrepreneur and bio scientist is spending days and nights working
for a new world order when it comes to science based business.
It has not always been easy for scientists to play with business
entrepreneurs. Professor Lie, himself, an entrepreneur and founder of
GenoMar, is taking on new academic challenges as dean at the
VetBio Faculty, NMBUfrom January 2014.
- Making the world able to feed it's rapidly growing population,
we have to find new cost efficient and sustainable solutions for food
production. Biotechnology’s enabling power is one aspect, systemic
approaches to find and sustainably exploit new sources and provide
more food output from aquaculture and the fantastic riches of the
different trophic levels of the sea is another, making science and
business cooperate more trustfully is a third and very important
aspect, says professor Øystein Lie. Starting in his new dean job, he
will still continue to manage MarLife at the strategic level and
building networks of cooperation in the biomarine field worldwide.
He is soon closing a two year project, the BioVerdi report on
Norwegian bioeconomy as the countrys new, important platform for
economic development. Involving 50 parties, from the academic
captains to leaders in the four big sectors industry, marine, health
and agriculture, the report establishes a common, national platform
for biotech innovation and entrepreneurship.
- We are really speaking about Norway's new oil, says prof. Lie,
managing the report's secretariat together with Marius Øgaard, head
of networks and competence at Oslotech.
The global challenges will for the years to come be a playground
for Øystein Lie and his allies, now building a new global network
connecting regional and national biomarine clusters. Read about
BICA, the Biomarine International Clusters Association on the
previous page.
Not least; the preparation for the annual biomarine innovation
summit in Bergen, Biomarine Innovation Day, is fighting for space in
Øystein Lie's over-tight schedule. He did not find more hours than 24
per day. Or did he?

BioMarine Cascais
BioMarine Cascais,
Portugal,30 – 31 Oct. 2014

In Cascais 30-31 October 2014 trendsetting players and
stakeholders of all marine sectors will meet to address
the most central issues for the development of the blue
economy and to do business.

The board consists of global biomarine networkers teaming up with the founders MarLife and Biomarine Business Convention. Øystein Lie and Pierre Erwes met in Paris in December to sum up a busy autumn preparing the new BICA for an even more busy 2014. - The BICA is setting sail aiming to build a powerful association of clusters engaged in global and local biomarine innovation and entrepreneurship, concludes Mr Erwes and Mr Lie. The association, registered in Monaco with Prince Albert as honorary chair and the tasks of the new body, was discussed and outlined during the Biomarine Business Convention i Halifax in September 2013, where the Prince confirmed his endorsement. In short BICA will seek to represent the marine global community when communicating with regulators and authorities in developing acts and regulatories. BICA will act as an extended arena for business and investment opportunities and hold a dynamic information directory of relevant marine data. The BICA board: - His Excellency Bernard Fautrier , CEO of Prince Albert II of Monaco foundations: bfautrier@gouv.mc - Deborah Mosca, Chief Executive Officer, MCOI - Marine Bio-Technologies Center of innovation: dmosca@mbcoi.net - Ilaria Nardello, Marine Biotechnology Research Coordinator, National University of Ireland, Galway, inardello@marine.ie - Oystein Lie, CEO MarLife, Oystein.Lie@forskningsparken.no - Pierre Erwes, Executive Chairman BioMarine, pierre.erwes@biomarine.org One of the first tasks for the BICA board will be to engage an excecutive team, which is on the agenda early 2014. Marine business centered in Oslo Oslo's first co-working space for marine business and innovation will materialize early January 2014 at Norway’s main interface between Academia and industry, Oslo Science Park. The business centre will host marine companies and provide access to state of the art offices, meeting rooms and research facilities in addition to being head quarter of MarLife. The construction commenced mid October this year. It is anticipated that the hub will be supplied with more infrastructure of relevance for marine innovation in the years to come like lab customized experimental facilities, lab hotels, incubator etc. Diplomatic efforts at MarLife Lim Shrimp Organization (LSO) visited MarLife the 18th of October 2013 at Oslo Science Park accompanied by the Chinese Ambassador to Norway, Zhao Jun. Øystein Lie invited Lim Shrimp Organization to establish an office at MarLife Business Centre. Lie also discussed with the Ambassador how the relationship Norway-China was developing and potentially improving. Ambassador Zhao replied that the relationship was still very challenging, but the Marine Business Centre initiative would definitely contribute in a positive way. The marine sector in one of the most important in the Norwegian-Chineese relations. Opportunities in microalgae Microalgae has vast genetic diversity and versatile cultivating options. A lot is going globally in the field, from basic R&D to scaled production and marketing a vast array of products. MarLife are into a series of microalgae analyses and reports, the first of which is carried out as a joint delivery from the Blue Bio project. The report is spanning from describing the biology of interesting target algae, landscape of R&D groups and commercial players, outlooks on trends and developments etc. Currently, we are planning establishing an experimental scale microalgae facility in Oslo Science Park in collaboration with Oslotech AS. People involved at MarLife headquarter in the micro algae efforts are: Jon Aulie,Pål Myhre, Sytse Ybema and Lene Jahnsen. Dialogue academia/business The MarLife miniseminar in December created a vibrant dialogue between the Academia and the business players. At the meeting, held at NMBU, important problems like dark muscle spots and Piscine reo virus and heart and muscle inflammation was on the agenda together with Zebrafish as cost efficient model for fundamental disease studies. The enhance dialogue academia/business is not least spot on in the BioVerdi report on a common biotechnology platform for innovation and entreprenurship. The report, where the marine sector is significant, is to be published in 2014. It is now in the conclusive prossess, and will be finalized early in the new year. Advertise in Blue Frontier Magazine!
