Bee Granted, a consultancy company specialising in strategic innovation and EU-funded research, contributes to the BioSusTex project by ensuring that the work carried out by the consortium translates into meaningful, long-term impact. With a focus on communication, dissemination and exploitation, Bee Granted plays an important role in aligning the technical achievements of the project with stakeholder engagement, market pathways and policy relevance.
The company is led by Dr. Alex Neagu, who contributed to the BioSusTex proposal, with a particular focus on articulating the project’s impact framework. Continuing that involvement into the implementation phase has offered a valuable opportunity to follow through on the project’s long-term ambitions, helping to ensure that BioSusTex not only delivers scientific results, but also drives change across the textile industry.
Within the project, Bee Granted is responsible for crafting and delivering the communication and exploitation strategy, supporting the visibility of project activities and helping partners identify opportunities for uptake, scaling and long-term use of their results. The company also acts as a liaison between the technical work and implementation, helping to ensure that insights and innovations are positioned in ways that can inform policy, business models, or future research agendas.
Bee Granted’s contribution builds on a strong background in Horizon Europe projects, where the company supports researchers and innovators in shaping strategic narratives, stakeholder engagement plans and impact pathways. This expertise enables BioSusTex to take a structured and forward-looking approach to its exploitation efforts, ensuring that the outcomes are accessible, relevant and positioned for further development.
Participation in BioSusTex reflects Bee Granted’s core mission: to connect innovative research with strategic planning and real-world application. The project provides an ideal environment to do this, bringing together a dynamic mix of academic, industrial and policy-focused partners working toward a shared goal: advancing safe, circular and sustainable solutions for the textile industry.
Through its role in BioSusTex, Bee Granted supports the consortium in turning knowledge into action and laying the groundwork for impact that will extend well beyond the project's lifetime.
