CAMbio-pH is in agreement with the subsequent drives: 

• Materials research can be presented starting from the materials themselves (e.g. biomaterials, polymers) or the industrial sector (e.g. chemistry) or their applications (e.g. energy, health, transport) as well through other approaches. Materials profit from a wide range of scientific disciplines, such as chemistry, physics, biology and engineering, as well as from all available technologies and multidisciplinary approaches, like nanotechnology and biotechnology. 
• Research should respond to people's needs and concerns with integrated solutions that tie energy, natural resources and human health. Mastering the design, research and development of new and improved materials will remain key for achieving the goals of the European Innovation Policy, in agreement with the European Strategy for a smart, sustainable and inclusive growth.
• Materials can enable industrial and commercial success for both existing and not-yet existing products and processes: they may introduce new functionalities and improved properties adding value to existing products and process, thus representing an invisible revolution; at the same time, the engineered production of materials by design might allow the development of products and processes under a really sustainable systemic approach.
• Life sciences and biotechnology are main innovation drivers in the European Union. They lead to new growth and competitiveness in traditional sectors, such as chemical industries (including the pharmaceutical), textile companies and many others.
