EU, China to step up cooperation in bio-economy
The European Union (EU) and China agreed on Thursday to boost cooperation in developing modern knowledge-based bio-economy. "We are both very interested in looking for solutions that lie in the life sciences and bio-technology, because these are sustainable solutions that can help us find a balance between the needs of our economies and our environment," said an EU-China joint statement issued at a conference on bio-economy. At the same time of the two-day gathering in Brussels on bio-economy, a conference on the same topic was held in the Chinese capital of Beijing. The document, made by EU Science and Technology Commissioner Janez Potocnik and Chinese Science and Technology Minister Xu Guanhua, highlighted the importance of bio-economy.
