WEF-CAP: white papers - Jordan, Egypt, Tunisia
The WEF-CAP project tries to support sustainable and resilient agri-food sector production, thus improving the energy and water efficiency: renewables, wastewater treatment, water harvesting and reuse, etc.
Successful technologies in Water -Energy - Food Nexus (WEFN) integrated approach have been analysed and catalogued. In this section there are 3 white papers which demonstrates the importance of adopting this integrated approach and in particular analyze the cases of some partner countries of the project: Jordan, Egypt and Tunisia.
INTECMED - Brief e-Bazaar
This document describes, within the INTECMED project (aimed to develop an integrated innovation ecosystem at local level to support technological transfer and commercialization of research results), the e-Bazaar platform, which opens the doors of all research institutions, giving the same access rights to the knowledge and know-how produced within them with a continuous interactive way. The originality of the project concerns the way in which this knowledge is disseminated as well as the needs of members outside it. All parties, Investors and Innovators, will be able to create and manage autonomous modern web profiles ensuring the immediacy and validity of their information and interact through collaboration requests, direct messages and instant notifications.
INTECMED - Innovation Ecosystem RAIT in Greece, Spain, Tunisia and Egypt
INTECMED project aimed at facing common challenges of the areas involved in the project, all characterized by generalized economic slowdown and serious job deficit, developing an integrated innovation ecosystem at local level to support technological transfer and commercialization of research results.
This section contains reports that describe, for each country participating in the project (Greece, Spain, Tunisia, Egypt), the innovation ecosystem in each specific country, the project's support for the ecosystem and a short description of the Regional Alliance Innovation Transfer (RAIT).
INTECMED - Good Practices Report on pre-incubation services in the Mediterranean Area
INTECMED project aimed to develop an integrated innovation ecosystem at local level to support technological transfer and commercialization of research results.
This report tries to select the best practices implemented by business incubators, their purpose and in particular their training method, in four Mediterranean countries, members of the INTECMED project (Greece, Spain, Tunisia, Egypt) in order to meet the aspirations planned for this project, with a focus on the offer of incubators, in particular technological and innovation incubators, while presenting and analyzing their level of performance and the factors that make them effective for project promoters.

NEX-LABS Joint Action Plan Recommendations.
After setting the priorities, specific and targeted recommendations were found imperative to outline the action plan that would ultimately generate an informed strategy, supporting the implementation of Living Labs (LLs) and ensuring the success of the intended Water-Energy-Food (WEF) nexus approach. As such, consecutive sessions with partners were organized that were diverse and ranged between virtual meetings and in person workshops that resembled the intended LLs. The MURAL, an interactive online platform, was used to host partners of these projects and experts in the field, engaging in discussions and fulfilling tasks required for the development of the Nexus Joint Action Plan (NJAP). The MURAL incorporated a series of steps to be followed during various sessions. The tool built upon the recommendations from previous NEX-LABS activities, implementing measures to assess and prioritize the necessary actions. As such, over several meetings and focus group discussions, partners were able to assign several targeted actions for the pre-assigned recommendations, identify the timeline and impacts of the actions, assigned scores, and ranked the priorities, by that validating the
determined priorities.
Valorization of wine-making by-products’ extracts in cosmetics
Grape pomaces are considered of interest due to their high content in bioactive molecules, especially phenolic compounds. The latter can be recovered from grape pomace and used as active ingredients in easily marketable cosmetic products. Indeed, phenolic compounds are well known for their remarkable beneficial properties at the skin level, such as antioxidant, antiaging, anti-hyperpigmentation and photoprotective effects. This review aims to describe the strategies for recovery of polyphenols from grape pomace, to highlight the beneficial potential of these extracts and their potential utilization as active ingredients in cosmetic products.
Technological analysis: wine, cosmetic and nutraceutical industry differences among countries and geographical areas (France, Jordan, Tunisia and Lebanon)
The first part of this analysis (Technological Analysis) focused on a pre-competitive study of the three main sectors of interest (Wine, Cosmetics and Nutraceuticals). The main KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) of the market, development and contraction trends were analyzed and exposed, with a particular focus on products and channels, especially as regards the Cosmetics and Nutraceuticals sectors. The main trends regarding consumers and the reference legislation were also identified and exposed. Finally, the main stakeholders involved in the three sectors were identified and classified on the basis of their potential sphere of influence.
