Foreword
Marine biotechnology (MBT) gives different associations and meanings depending on where you are in a value chain and what your aims are. To approach this area in a coherent manner, MBT should be understood by the enabling role biotechnology has in making it possible to realize value creation from marine, biological resources. For defining MBT, the OECD has recommended to use their generic definition of biotechnology by introducing “marine” in the text, and this has been the ERA-NET Marine Biotechnology project’s (2013–2017) common ground for the development of this area. Then it applies to and involves all stakeholders from basic science to developers of industrial products and services. However, to a limited degree, MBT is a separate b
