"Building Synergies in Markets, Feedstocks and Technology"Bio economy is fast taking shape with process and product developments taking place at unprecedented pace. Developments in biotransformations and biotechnology domains coupled with the realisation of vast potential of biomass have led to a surge in R&D investments. For decades, the USD 400bn global chemical industry has relied on fossil fuels. Industrial companies are now turning to Biobased Chemicals in a bid to be sustainable and to diversify feedstock sources. World Economic Forum forecasts a USD 230bn market by 2020 with biobased chemicals accounting for 9% of overall chemical production. Development of a bio-based economy is at an early and high risk stage. There are complex issues of microbial engineering, commercial and social challenges waiting to be resolved |

Addressing the dynamics of the biobased chemicals business is CMT’s BiobasedChemAsia. The summit will be deliberating on multi-dimensional aspects of the biobased chemical markets. As a stakeholder you will find a response to all the unresolved issues at this summit. You will network with key experts to discuss the key leverages needed for success. Markets for bio-based products is expected to stimulate a new wave of innovation, leading to green fuels, chemicals and materials. You will gain first hand knowledge about the complexities of managing the bio based business ranging from feedstock generation to conversion technologies to product development. BiobasedChemAsia summit will bring on a single platform top experts to discuss, debate and deliberate several complex linkages and patterns emerging globally. The summit will provide 360° perspective of biobased chemical industry in Asia and beyond. Surely, an event that you DO NOT want to MISS!
