Not only has the 3DPARE project seen its end date extended to June 30, 2023, but also the prospect of new actions that may interest new targets.

The extension of the end date of the project allows the partners to continue for more than a year the monitoring of 3D printed artificial reefs immersed near the French, British, Spanish and Portuguese coasts.

The extension also introduces a new activity linked to the integration of two new partners. Indeed, the idea is to test the feasibility of printing reefs for aquarium applications during the last months of the project. Thus, Autoridad Portuaria de Santander and Fundacion Oceanografica de Gipuzcoa are now part of the partnership and will test in their aquariums in San Sebastian and in the Museo Maritimo del Cantabrico the new structures produced by the University of Cantabria. 

New budget; 2 167 808,85 euros of which 1 625 856,65 euros of ERDF funds from the Interreg Arc Atlantic program.
