Happy to see our #OptiForValue partner Ola Lindroos (SLU) present in this IUFRO - International Union of Forest Research Organizations - webinar last week #ForestManagement #ForestHealth #ForestResilience #CBEresearch

Great exchange at the 11th Research Day hosted by Österreichische Bundesforste AG — many thanks for bringing together science and practice! The Austrian #OptiForValue team from Wood K plus and BOKU University shared insights on the future of Norway spruce under increasing climate pressure #Forestry

📢 Explore the #FORSAIDTechnologies series - first demonstration video now out!

In the Ep.3 of the podcast we asked ourselves: how can forest management become more understandable for society? Discover the role played by photography, art, and serious games on the ICONS Innovation Stories podcast🎧 open.spotify.com/episode/2f3w... #TheSoundOfForests

900 participants, one shared goal: improving how we monitor Europe’s forests. At Swedish Kartdagar in Uppsala, #forwardsEU highlighted the role of remote sensing, open data, and the ForestWard Observatory in strengthening European forest monitoring. 🔗 forwards-project.eu/forwards-at-...

👀 🌲 🌳 Lookback to 21st March when we celebrated International Day of Forests 2026 - theme: “Forests and Economies”! Forests power local economies, support resilient rural communities, and supply sustainable raw materials for Europe’s growing bioeconomy #InternationalDayOfForests #CBEJU #CBEresearch

We look forward to IUFRO online webinar on "Forest Machinery Development and Automation" with experts from SLU- Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences and UEF- University of Eastern Finland including #OptiForValue partner Ola Lindroos (SLU) #ForestManagement #ForestResilience #CBEresearch

Forest-Based Value Chains in Transition - Innovation, Employment, Diversity, and Inclusion for Sustainable Futures www.iufro.org/events/fores...

🌲 Interested in the 2026 IUFRO RG 4.05 Annual Conference “Forest-Based Value Chains in Transition – Innovation, Employment, Diversity, & Inclusion for Sustainable Futures.” 📅 23–26 Nov 2026 📍 Bolzano Italy 📢 Call for abstracts now open! #CBEresearch #ForestManagement #ForestHealth #ForestValueChain

#CBESF2026 brought together stakeholders from across #Europe to discuss how #biobased innovation can move from research to industrial deployment. 📣Strong industrial ecosystems, support for demonstration plants, better access to finance and faster market uptake. www.cbe.europa.eu/news/innovat...

♻️ Zero waste starts with innovation On #ZeroWasteDay, we highlight how CBE JU-funded projects are redesigning value chains so materials stay in use & gain new life. 🧪ENZYCLE tackles plastic waste 🌳SWEETWOODS → VIOBOND scales wood residues 🍇UP4HEALTH upcycles agri-food cbe.europa.eu/achievements

Every year, the world produces more than 2 billion tonnes of municipal solid waste. If all that waste was packed into standard shipping containers, it would wrap around the globe 25 times. Everyone can play a part in achieving a more sustainable future. #ZeroWasteDay @unep.org

Welcome to Bluesky @cbe-ju.bsky.social ! #CBEresearch #CBEimpact #CBEachievements #Bioeconomy #Sustainability #HorizonEurope

Interesting online seminar, on 19th March 2026 at 15:00 (CET) two talks on ‘Forest Health in the face of climate, pests and pathogens’. Part of the TTT seminars: Third Thursday of the month at three (CET) #ForestManagement #ForestHealth #ClimateResilience #Forestpests

Looking forward to the next #Adapt4K Networking Meeting! Which brings together citizen scientists, knowledge community members, & anyone interested in shaping the future of forests 📅 19.03.2026 📍 Tulln University & Research Campus (UFT) #CBEJU #CBEresearch #OptiForValue #ForestManagement

Great to have the opportunity to share our #OptiForValue research at last week’s #Adapt4K project event focused on the Almanac of Forest Research in Lower Austria. A big thank‑you to the #Adapt4K team for hosting an insightful event.

Live from #COLISummit 2026 in Vienna, where Axel (Wood K plus) presented our work🌲 Focusing in particular on #OptiForValue Austrian case study “Value from Damage” — exploring how forest damage, often seen only as loss, can be re-thought as a source of value creation through smart, sustainable use

It was great to share the same stand as #SUSBOARD at #COLISummit this week. Many thanks to #OptiForValue Axel Solt-Rindler (Wood K plus) for representing us, & designing a nice poster with BOKU on #OptiForValue CS1 Austria- Value Management & Value from damage #CBEJU #CBEresearch #ClimateResilience

🌲 We look forward to presenting #OptiForValue at today’s Adapt4K project event – an exchange on the Almanac of Forest Research in Lower Austria! 🌟 Many thanks to Christian Kanzian, Sonja Vospernik, Stephan Böhm (BOKU) and Axel Solt-Rindler (Wood K plus) for representing us! #CBEJU #ForestManagement

A strong weakening or collapse of AMOC will likely have catastrophic impacts on European forests as shown in a recently published study within @optiforvalue.bsky.social: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Thinking of what this means for #forestry and #ForestManagement! Plenty of planning for #ClimateResilience including #drought in tree species. #OptiForValue is doing just this in Case Study 2 – Value from Resilience in Spain - see some relevant partner publications below ⬇️ 🌲🌳#CBEresearch

📰 ☕ Have you read the SMURF - The forest owners' project newsletter yet?
