The smart tool for EU proposal drafters and grant writers CallforEurope is a consultancy that provides for professional information and assistance on European Policies, Programmes and Public Calls. Our mission is to support transparent knowledge and easy access to all of the opportunities offered by EU Programmes. We think that giving fresh information on such themes is a valid lever for boosting European Union integration.
Our support is intended to: • offer technical information on how to access to and manage EU grants and projects; • make people find new transnational partnerships throughout Europe; • stimulate public debate on how to access to EU funds. Our ambition is to serve as a technical resource center. We want to serve primarily those that usually work on writing applications and
managing projects through European funding. Call them “Euro-drafters” or “Euro-experts”: in any case, their activity demands high specialization and a constant updating on European policies, programs and public calls. Our service is intended for them but also for any private, public and not-for-profit organization interested to European programmes and funds.
If you want more information on our services, please drop a line at info@call-for-europe.com visit us at https://call-for-europe.org subscribe to our newsletter at https://www.call-for-europe.org/newsletter

Regional Development and Interregional cooperation
The European Blue Growth Strategy: its main features and actors The Blue Economy in short terms In the last edition of the EU Blue Economy Report ( ), the European Commission includes in this sector, all those activities that are marine-based or marine-related.This means that the blue economy refers to established but also innovative and emerging sectors to the development of coastal communities and economic systems. Traditional sectors are seven: Marine living resources, Marine non-living resources, Marine Renewable energy, Port activities, Shipbuilding and repair, Maritime transport and Coastal tourism. According to the Report, these sectors directly employed close to 5 million people and generated around €750 billion in turnover and €218 billion in gross value added in 2018. But there are emerging sectors such as: Marine renewable energy (i.e. Ocean energy, floating solar energy and offshore hydrogen generation), Blue bioeconomy and biotechnology, Marine minerals, Desalination, Maritime defence, and Submarine cables.
1. Develop sectors that have a high potential for sustainable jobs and growth, such as: a. aquaculture (Fisheries website) b. coastal tourism c. marine biotechnology d. ocean energy e. seabed mining 2. Essential components to provide knowledge, legal certainty and security in the blue economy a. marine knowledge to improve access to information about the sea; b. maritime spatial planning to ensure an efficient and sustainable management of activities at sea; c. integrated maritime surveillance to give authorities a better picture of what is happening at sea. 2. Sea basin strategies to ensure tailor-made measures and to foster cooperation between countries a. Adriatic and Ionian Seas b. Arctic Ocean c. Atlantic Ocean d. Baltic Sea
EU Blue Growth Strategy The Blue growth ( ) is the long term strategy that the European Commission has implemented to support sustainable growth in the marine and maritime sectors as a whole. Seas and oceans are drivers for the European economy and have great potential for innovation and growth. The Blue Growth Strategy aims at promoting a number of important areas of development activities in many domains. The strategy consists of three components: Credit: Bobrov69/Pixabay

The BlueInvest Platform The European Commission and the European Investment Fund (EIF) decided to set up a BlueInvest Platform for SMEs in 2019. This encompassed a package of measures including coaching for investment readiness, and grants up to €22 million in 2019 and €20 million in 2020, for the final steps of the new business plans (e.g. demonstration, certification, marketing etc.). In line with the EU’s move towards leveraging its support, the grants were made conditional on letters of intent from investors – either from the public or the private sector. In addition, €75 million worth of liquidity from the EIF (with a 95% guarantees from EFSI) was made available in 2020 for investing equity in funds specialising entirely or mostly in the blue economy or co-investing in particular companies. The Multiannual Financial Framework 2021-2027 is expected to build on experience gained in setting up and operating the Platform. The successor to the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund will offer more possibilities to bring in external investors. Additionally, InvestEU, the successor to EFSI, will switch from purely stimulating economic recovery towards being a primary instrument to accelerate measures under the Green Deal. Since projections indicate that the blue economy will play a crucial role in meeting targets for greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity, substantial strengthening of investment support from the EU is expected.
