From 6–8 May 2025, the BioProtect consortium gathered in Reykjavík, Iceland, for the 1st Annual Meeting: a lively, engaging, and highly productive event that brought together partners from across Europe to reflect, plan, and connect.
Over three full days, participants took part in a dynamic programme that combined presentations, interactive workshops, and speed dating sessions, all designed to review progress, share updates, align on upcoming priorities.
The meeting also included a rich social programme—highlighted by horse riding, kayaking, swimming in hot pools, sailing and dinners, which all helped strengthen the bonds within the consortium. From Icelandic landscapes to lively conversations, participants left feeling both energised and connected.
We’re heading into the next phase of the project more connected, aligned, and inspired than ever. The success of the meeting reflected the energy and commitment of everyone involved in BioProtect!
A big thank you to our coordinators for hosting us and everyone who contributed to making the meeting a success!
