ATLANTICLAM lead by Oceano Fresco will bring Euro-native clam species from ‘farm to fork’ - - 12/01/2023

The ATLANTICLAM project aims to bring Euro-native clam species from “farm to fork”, in an integrated, differentiated and consumer-oriented perspective, fostering the consumption of sustainable, healthy and tasty food, contributing to tackling climate change and providing a new income source for the blue economy.

It will be developed by Oceano Fresco (www.oceano-fresco.pt) and its partners INL – International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (www.inl.int), Faculty of Biotechnology of Universidade Católica Portuguesa (www.esb.ucp.pt), Nofima (www.nofima.com) and Maritech (https://maritech.com/).

This project has an investment of 1.394.411 EUR and is funded under the Blue Growth Program of the Financial Mechanism of the European Economic Area (EEA) 2014-2021. The EEA (EEA Grants Portugal) financial mechanism aims to reduce social and economic disparities in Europe and strengthen bilateral relations between Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway and the beneficiary countries.

We are working together for a green, competitive and inclusive Europe!
