This summit will establish new relationships with bio-based material innovators leading to commercial growth within the sustainable goods sector. It will showcase original technological advances and innovations powering the new wave of alternative materials, shaping a more sustainable fashion industry. ...
The advances in biological science are bolstered by accelerating innovations in computing, automation, and artificial intelligence (AI), resulting in a new wave of innovation known as the Bio Revolution. McKinsey has found that as much as 60 percent of the physical inputs to the global economy are either biological or nonbiological but could in principle be produced or substituted using biological...
The innovation award “Bio-based Material of the Year” will be awarded to the most innovative material and product on the market. Six new materials and products out of 17 applications have been nominated for the innovation award by the members of the advisory board. The three winners will be chosen by an online poll....
The authors provide a set of biomaterial definitions representing key material technologies being practised today. Also, they present a model to better understand those different biomaterial technologies as well as a series of high level process diagrams highlighting key steps in material production including potential inputs and outputs to help identify impact hotspots....
Biobased Value Circle offers a unique interdisciplinary research and training environment tailored for 12 early stage researchers (PhDs) excited by the development of innovative biobased products, respecting the principles of the circular economy. The mission is to establish a paradigm shift in the innovation process for biobased materials to accelerate the transition from a fossil-based to a biob...
The bio-based buildings utilise the natural properties of bio-based materials to insulate and regulate internal environments, particularly with reducing fluctuations in temperature and relative humidity, which can be harmful to sensitive stored products and artefacts....
BIOSWITCH aims to bring Europe to the forefront of the bio-based economy by encouraging and supporting brand owners from different sectors to switch to bio-based approaches. In order to achieve this, the project proposes a holistic, systemic approach based on two pillars: 1. A framework placing brand owners in the centre of a set of events and communication actions that will allow shaping solutio...
