Welcome to our ninth partner, VBO FEB

”Biosolutions have an enormous potential when it comes to accelerating the green transition, strengthening Europe’s competitiveness, and creating green jobs. But current administrative burdens and unnecessary long approval procedures in the EU are keeping these cutting-edge innovations from the market. This must be changed. We are therefore proud to take part in the important work for promoting biosolutions in the EU.” says Chief Economist at VBO FEB, Edward Roosens.

VBO FEB is Belgium’s largest employers' organization, representing over 50,000 companies and more than 75% of the total private sector employment in Belgium. Their influence spans across 40 different sectorial federations, including waste and recycling, security, commerce and services, and food, impacting business activity at national, European, and international levels. 

“We at the European Biosolutions Coalition are delighted to welcome VBO FEB into the Coalition. Their wealth of experience in a great number of areas strengthens us at a decisive time with the new Parliament taking shape. Their membership is not only great news for the Coalition, but also for the biosolutions agenda in Europe and by extension, Europe’s green future” says our director Sofie Carsten Nielsen.

We look forward to working together with VBO FEB on driving the Bio Revolution in Europe to achieve the EU’s green ambitions, creating new green jobs, and strengthening our sustainability, resilience, and competitiveness. Welcome, VBO FEB!
