Launch of HelEx

:tada: We are proud to announce the launch of HelEx, our new Horizon Europe project! :fusée:
The primary aim of HelEx is to employ extremophile Helianthus species in order to mitigate the effects of climate change on feedstock and ecosystem services offered by sunflowers. :tournesol::afrique:
The consortium met last week for an online meeting to begin a four-year collaboration as part of the HelEx project :ordinateur::poignée_de_main:
In total, the consortium is made of 18 partners from 9 different countries, all bringing their unique expertise across and along the sunflower value chain.

Next step: a General Assembly will take place in Toulouse this fall.
