Thanks to the integral approach of CBCI, diverse outputs were produced to have a broad effect on the sector. 
● 3 White papers have been published to influence the stakeholders in charge of funding & financing, of the regulatory framework (policy makers) and of procurement, with the objective to facilitate the shift towards more circularity for professionals by an enabling environment. 
● Professionals now also benefit from a practical guide and a feasibility study, as tools to accompany them in circular construction projects, at each stage of the process (building process and materials characteristics). 
● The project harvested experience and knowledge through demonstrators and living-labs, that will remain as proof of concept of circular bio-based construction (CBC) and serve as cross-border educational models. These include a full-scale demonstrator through circular renovation and construction and real-life integrations of bio-based elements, a fully functional living lab through construction of a new building in an urban renewal project and a demonstration exhibition for circular bio-based materials and elements
● In addition to these physical embodiments, CBCI developed learning materials for professionals and students (teaching Programme “Building Tomorrow” book) that provides the necessary knowledge for (future) professionals to replace the linear construction approach for a circular one.

CBCI partners soon realised that a cross-border approach was needed as circular biobased construction was only just beginning. None of the regions had full knowledge, experience, and facilities on the matter. In order to accelerate the uptake of CBC, sharing was required. Knowledge of technical aspects of biobased materials and process management was particularly available in the University of Bath in the UK, while pilots in the 2 Seas area also needed this. Likewise, knowledge on bio-based building materials, process management and business models were mastered in Belgium and the Netherlands, while all areas could learn from that. Also, the whole region could benefit from the strong network of SMEs in France experienced in waste elimination, via observer CD2E. Additionally, cross-border cooperation was needed to reach a critical mass of renewable, bio-based, materials available to take on the development of bio-based elements. Finally, comparison of cross-border cases broadens the learning. General patterns may be identified, which would otherwise remain unnoticed.All partners brought in their knowledge, experience, and facilities to the project. It provided them with the willingness to share lessons learnt within institutions, especially on real-estate approach, along with having an open-minded organisation attitude on rules and regulations. Additionally, the cross-border approach significantly improved the quality of the white papers, thanks to the contributions and collaboration of all partners. This has also increased the ‘image’, up to national and European level. Some conclusions and findings are truly innovative and would not have been achieved without this collaboration.
