Slovenia is the third most-forested EU country and once had a strong and broad forest sector. However, it lags behind other countries in innovative use of sustainable renewable materials such as wood in the construction sector.
The EU-funded InnoRenew CoE aims to develop a business plan for a new centre of excellence that will address these shortcomings. Based on this business plan, a new institution – the InnoRenew CoE – will be funded. The new CoE will leverage Slovenia’s potential, accelerate science, and facilitate collaborations between industry and academia in Europe and beyond.
