What happens when blue meets green through the lens of the social economy? On 23–24 September 2025, Diesis Network will host the event “Blending Blue and Green for Real Sustainability: advancing competitiveness through sustainable practices across Land and Sea” in Brussels.
This two-day gathering combines two milestones:
- the Bluedots European Living Lab, a capacity-building event designed to foster collaboration among social economy actors and beyond in the Blue Economy;
- the final event of the GRAINS, marking the end of a two-year journey supporting the green transition of SMEs across Europe and beyond, and showcasing its results and long-term sustainability outlook.
Together, Bluedots and GRAINS EU-funded projects, will create a unique space to explore synergies between the Blue and Green economies, exchange best practices, and highlight innovative pathways for the twin transition. Expect high-level roundtables, panel discussions, interactive workshops, and stories of resilience and innovation from across Europe.
While the event is by invitation, insights and resources will be shared afterwards with everyone.
