According to the 'Green Book of Citizen Science' Citizen Science projects involve the general public in scientific activities and encourage the active contribution of citizens to research through their intellectual effort, their general knowledge or their tools and resources. Citizen science is emerging as an accessible tool for social intervention that allows communities to address the challenges that concern them, while providing the scientific community with a new space for both direct dialogue and collaboration in the development of certain research projects that would otherwise be unaffordable.

The objective of this session is to share different tools that allow the incorporation of knowledge in regulation and public policies. These are methodologies that, with different levels of exposure and cost, can provide evidence that reduces uncertainty and allow, in the public sphere, the scaling up of solutions step by step -in a similar way to what happens with industrial innovations-.

There are at least four modalities of knowledge that could contribute to the design of policies.

1) Pre-existing knowledge, and for this we must promote the function of scientific advice to governments and parliaments,

2) Knowledge generated ad hoc in simulation experiments or in real public policy pilots – random control trials-

3) Knowledge encapsulated in solutions offered the private sector, promoting for this purpose tools that facilitate their testing and acquisition, such as sandboxes or pre-commercial public purchase schemes.

And 4) Knowledge co-created with public employees themselves and their users through various models, such as citizen laboratories or living labs.

When we hear the word startup, we usually associate it with an innovative, disruptive idea with high potential. However, around 90% of these companies fail within their first three years of lifespan, mainly due to a lack of funding and management skills of their founders. In this context, the BIOECONOMYVENTURES project, that we are presenting at Transfiere 2023, is facilitating their access to funding while expanding the bio-based industry in the EU by accelerating the market entry of new technologies, processes, products, and applications.

The circular economy is a production and consumption model that seeks to extend the useful life of products (sharing, reusing, repairing, renting), which in practice translates into reducing the waste generated to a minimum. This concept contrasts with the traditional linear economic model based on produce, consume and throw away. Overcoming this model is vital to ensure the sustainability of the planet, bearing in mind that natural resources are finite, and to gain in efficiency and competitiveness. At this roundtable, MITECO will present its initiatives to achieve a sustainable, decarbonized, resource-efficient and competitive economy.

Deep tech is at the heart of contemporary issues: on a geopolitical level, it is the confrontation stone of the Sino-US duel for global leadership and on an economic level, it is one of the answers to the current great challenges of humanity (food security, global warming and decarbonization, pandemic, energy supply...). To avoid getting stuck in stagflation and to remain independent and sovereign, governments must invest massively in deep tech. France, Germany and the United Kingdom have launched deep tech plans and it is part of the European Commission's "New Innovation Agenda", which the Spanish presidency of the EU will have to carry forward from July onward.

Both public and private agents increasingly focus on deep tech entrepreneurship as an effective strategy to transfer sophisticated technologies to the market. Thus, it is necessary to develop ecosystems in which the three fundamental pillars of any innovation ecosystem can be interrelated:

- People who generate technology-based ideas (minds).
- Managers capable of transforming technological ideas into business opportunities (management).
- Investors who are committed to deep tech (money) entrepreneurial initiatives.

During his presentation, Asier Rufino, CEO of TECNALIA Ventures, will share his perspective on the key role that venture builders play in the development of these environments of interrelation between minds, management and money.
