About SMACC+

SMACC+ is a transnational Atlantic cooperation project focused on sustainable bioactive compounds from microalgae and cyanobacteria for cosmeceutical and nutraceutical applications.

Research and Innovation

The consortium develops validated formulations and extraction processes based on sustainability and safety criteria.

Technology Transfer

The project supports SME uptake through practical methodologies, pilot implementation and market-oriented guidance.

Circular Blue Economy

SMACC+ promotes value-chain integration, reduced waste and efficient use of marine resources in Atlantic territories.

Why This Project Matters

Cosmeceutical and nutraceutical markets are increasingly demanding safe, traceable and sustainable ingredients. SMACC+ responds by building a transnational pathway from marine biomass to high-value applications.

What SMACC+ Delivers

Validated bioactive compounds, transfer-ready knowledge packages, dissemination tools and cooperation mechanisms designed for replication by SMEs and innovation actors.

Atlantic Cooperation Value

By connecting partners across Atlantic regions, the project creates shared capabilities, accelerates adoption and strengthens territorial competitiveness in the blue bioeconomy.

Visibility and Compliance

SMACC+ communication materials include the mandatory Interreg Atlantic Area and EU co-financing visibility elements.
