This year’s Global Bioeconomy Summit (GBS2020) takes place from 16 to 20 November 2020. The GBS2020 Summit commences with an interactive workshop marathon of 12 different sessions. The workshops are organised by various international stakeholders in bioeconomy and cover a highly diverse range of topics.

The plenary agenda focuses on innovation and sustainable bioeconomy. Participants are invited to listen to many high-level speakers, learn about the latest developments in the global bioeconomy, its role in addressing global crises, and discoverer bio-innovations, markets, and consumer approaches.
