Why Attend

GBS2024 will once more gather leaders of bioeconomy from all hemispheres and will highlight a sustainable bioeconomy as the key to decarbonisation and sustainable transition to less fossil fuel dependent, rural and urban green economies; while building resilient and sustainable food systems, reversing biodiversity loss, meeting health challenges, and using innovation as a driver for new economic opportunities, especially jobs for the youth.

GBS2024 will discuss:

  • Cross sectoral topics (e.g., agri-food systems, forestry, ocean/aquatic, biomanufacturing, biopharma, biotechnology, biomaterials, and bioenergy)
  • Ecosystems (e.g., nature / ecology, consumer products, construction, and urban design)
  • Supporting mechanisms and enablers (e.g., policies, finance, standards, measurements, certifications).The GBS is a forum that fosters dialogue between widely different actors to promote sharing of best practices, to identify opportunities for global innovation and collaboration, and to gather champions in promoting the bioeconomy concept across disciplines and sectors amongst policy makers and financiers.
