BBSRC is seeking to renew the funding of Networks in Industrial Biotechnology and Bioenergy (NIBB) in the coming years. It is expected that a smaller number of networks, potentially with a wider remit and community, may be sought to minimise overlap and the numbers of events that run. This renewal process provides an opportunity to rethink the remit of the NIBB and help ensure that they serve the research and industry communities appropriately going forward. To this end, we are asking you to complete a short questionnaire.     

	1. Name (optional): 2. Sector: Academia Industry Other (please state below) 3. Please state which Sector if you have answered 'Other' 4. Which networks would you consider yourself to be an active member of (i.e. member of committee(s), attend events, apply for funding, review applications etc.)?       ADNet: Anaerobic Digestion Network    BIOCATNET: Network in Biocatalyst Discovery, Development and Scale-Up    BioProNET: Bioprocessing Network    C1NET: Chemicals from C1 Gas    CBMNet: Crossing biological membranes    FoodWasteNet: Food Processing Waste and By-Products Utilisation Network    HVCfP: High Value Chemicals from Plants Network    IBCarb: Glycoscience Tools for Biotechnology and Bioenergy    LBNet: Lignocellulosic Biorefinery Network    Metals in Biology: The elements of Biotechnology and Bioenergy    NPRONET: Natural Products Discovery and Bioengineering Network    P2P: A Network of Integrated Technologies: Plants to Products    PHYCONET: unlocking the IB potential of microalgae    5. Please provide brief examples of the ways in which you have actively engaged with the Network(s) selected above 6. From your experience of working with existing NIBB and the scientific/technological advances in your field, what key themes should be carried forward into future NIBB? 7. Are there areas not currently covered by the NIBB that you would like to see introduced in the remit of future networks? 8. There are a wide range of current NIBB activities, please indicate those that you think will be important to include in future networks         Funding:   Proof of Concept Funds    Business Interaction Vouchers    Consortium Building Funds    Travel / Accommodation Grants    Training Awards            Meetings:   Scientific Workshops    Networking Meetings    Funding/Creativity Workshops    Training Events            Early Career Support:   Information Meetings    Early Career Grants for Conferences/ Meetings    Early Career Workshops    Early Career Fellowships    Vacation Scholarships            Other:   Industry - Academic exchanges    Help with finding partners to solve challenges    Landscape Documents    Newsletters/ Social Media    Profiles/ Case studies/ Interviews    9.
