#EUBPConf2020
Programme Sneak-Peek – Join the 15th European Bioplastics Conference virtually from 30 November - 3 December 2020
Living up to providing you with the leading business and networking event for the biopolymer industry in Europe, the 2020 edition is going virtual! No, we will not tie you to the screen with an all-day zoom call, instead, we are delighted to present you with live, interactive, and to-the-point panel discussions, starring the leading business, policy, and industry experts. Six panels in four days, making sure the sessions of approximately 2 hours length fit into your work schedule. Ask your questions live and engage with the panelists and fellow delegates: this format will not stand short of what you are used to at European Bioplastics conferences. Click here to register to the conference and secure your ticket!
To top it off, we will present not one but two stages as well as a poster presentation and exhibition hall, giving you the chance to stay up to date on the latest trends, innovations and insights relevant to your information needs and field of expertise. Teaming up with vfair to bring to you this state-of-the-art conference platform, you can engage and network with the participants and exhibitors just as at a live event. You can virtually explore the exhibition booths, network in one-on-one chats, or – even better – personal video calls. All the while, you can parallelly follow the presentations and panels on the two virtual conference stages. Sustainability, resource efficiency, and policy framework - we will dive into a wide range of topics, including the possibilities and pitfalls of sustainability assessment tools for bio-based plastics and what the hype about chemical recycling means for the bioplastics industry. In keeping with a well-established tradition, we will present the latest market data update for bio-based and biodegradable plastics and give insights into the potentials and future trends of the industry. Some of the highlights this year include: European composting landscape – quo vadis? Throughout the EU, the organic recycling of compostable packaging is handled differently. How can the industry learn from the different frameworks and best practices? Industry leaders, NGOs, and biodegradability experts will discuss how to set the path towards a streamlined and coherent policy landscape. Challenges & opportunities of the ongoing EU Policy framework for bioplastics: following the latest discussion, the panellists including Silvia Maltagliatti (DG RTD) and sustainability advisory expert Julia Koskella (Systemiq) will elaborate on sustainable sourcing of renewable feedstock and biodegradation of plastics in different environments.
