Purpose and goal

With Vinnova’s support, RISE Processum AB will coordinate a Horizon-JU-CBE-2025-IA-02 proposal (deadline: Sept 18, 2025). With 90% of the consortium confirmed, we will finalize a balanced structure, secure 15% IKOP through the engagement of industrial partners, and refine the business model. The project will deliver a submitted proposal on Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) bio-based solutions to replace hazardous chemicals in textile production.

Expected effects and result

The expected results of the project include the establishment of a complete and well-structured consortium. It will comply with the CBE-JU’s 15% IKOP requirement, demonstrating strong industry engagement. A balanced mix of partners will be secured across the EU value chains ensuring comprehensive expertise and capability coverage. These efforts are expected to result in a strong and competitive proposal meeting the CBE-JU’s primary evaluation criteria and aligning with EU strategic objectives.

Planned approach and implementation

Three main activities will ensure a strong proposal: (1) Finalize a well-balanced consortium and meet the 15% IKOP via in-kind contributions from companies (2) Refine the business model, economic indicators, and exploitation strategy; (3) Collect administrative and technical inputs from committed partners and complete the full submission. Biweekly meetings are organized with the confirmed consortium as well as separate meetings with work-package leaders to define tasks, deliverables and KPIs.
