Conference Description

Driving the Next Wave of Bioenergy and Bioeconomy Innovation

IBBC 2026 unites global leaders from academia, industry, investment, and policy at a critical juncture for energy transition, as bioenergy and bioeconomy sectors shift from pilots to commercial scale, competitiveness, and genuine climate impact.

It bridges research innovation with industrial needs, tackling how bioenergy and bioeconomy achieve energy security, competitiveness, and net-zero goals. IBBC 2026 emphasizes commercialization, FOAK projects, market pull, and value-chain integration from sustainable biomass and biorefineries to energy systems, hydrogen, Power-to-X, and regional deployment.

Via plenaries, market-focused technical sessions, key panels, and industry-academia dialogue, it spotlights what scales, what fails, and why aligning technology, policy, and investment for bioenergy and bioeconomy paths to 2035–2040.
