B2Blue takes place in the framework of Sealogy® and is organised by ART-ER together with the partners of the Enterprise Europe Network's SIMPLER Consortium. B2Blue is one of the matchmaking events promoted by MISTRAL, an Interreg MED programme, aiming to strengthen international cooperation within the blue growth ecosystem and to increase the networking capabilities of innovation actors in the Med area.
