The Workshop "A global view of bio-based industries: benchmarking and monitoring their economic importance and future developments", organised in the framework of the EU-Brazil Sector Dialogues, brought together relevant experts from the EU, the US, Canada and Brazil, to describe the strategies that are in place in their own countries about the nascent Bioeconomy and the initiatives taken so far to measure this sector and understand its relevance. The specific focus is on the most innovative bio-based industry and the emerging issues for its precise measurement and analysis. The workshop provided a very useful forum of exchange of information about different scopes within the broad concept of Bioeconomy, different needs for specific data and indicators and different methodologies developed to address the needs.
