GAB Consulting has been officially recognized as a Biocontrol Diagnostic Expert by Bpi France

The French Ministry of Agriculture and Bpifrance have set up a “Biocontrol Diagnostic” to boost the development of R&D activities related to biopesticides and to promote the commercialization of biocontrol products in the French market. This arrangement is a wonderful opportunity for SMEs aiming to develop biopesticides, for which registration procedures are often considered as a pitfall. As a matter of fact, independent companies registered in France with up to 2000 staff can have their regulatory costs funded to 50% (up to € 120 000) thanks to this program.

Services that can be subsidized are:

  • Preliminary studies to characterize your product and its effectiveness;
  • Review of the scientific literature;
  • Data Gap Analysis according to current data requirements & Preliminary Risk Assessment;
  • Laboratory and field trials under certain conditions.

If you want to take advantage of this financial program and develop your biocontrol solutions, get in contact with our regulatory experts to obtain a tailored quote at: marise.borja@gabconsulting.de
