Future of BioEconomy 2027: The Bioeconomy in Practice—Innovations, Markets, and Scaling.

On January 21, 2027, FoB:Eco 2027 – Future of BioEconomy 2027 will take place as a free international online event focused on the bioeconomy. Following its successful debut, the event is now in its second edition. The focus will be on the bio-based economy, innovative materials and technologies, new business models, and the practical and industrial implementation of sustainable solutions.

We bring together decision-makers, companies, startups, investors, research institutions, networks, and political stakeholders. The focus is on the issues currently shaping the bioeconomy: Which bio-based solutions are technologically and economically viable? How can we successfully transition from the pilot stage to the market? Which business models, partnerships, and financing approaches accelerate scaling? And what role do regulation, sustainability, and market acceptance play?

You can look forward to:

  • Inspiring keynotes from industry, research, and technology experts
  • Interactive panels offering space for exchange and discussion
  • Diverse opportunities for networking with potential customers, suppliers, business partners, and other key stakeholders.

Whether as a participant or a speaker—FoB:Eco 2027 brings together innovation, the market, and practical implementation, fosters new collaborations, and creates valuable connections along bio-based value chains.
