Processing Lignocellulosic Biomass
8 November 2012 | Cleveland, UK
The main focus of this event is on the UK role for biomass conversion, and the business and commericial implications of the technologies being developed.
This conference will explore the commercial potential for processing plants and for brand owners, including:
- What are the opportunities?
- How is the market developing?
- What are the options for the supply chain?

More Crop Per Drop
29 November, 2012 | SCI, London, UK
Water is a key enabler to produce more food and biomass required for the world's increasing population. Accordingly, the focus of this event is on more efficient use of water. Knowing that agriculture uses less than 10% of the world’s total rainfall is not much help to populations in water stressed areas that cannot grow sufficient food or move to more productive zones.
Improving water productivity is therefore vital and has three main components: agronomic and plant science; water storage and transmission; and, governance relating to water access and competing uses. This meeting addresses agronomic and plant science particularly, whilst also examining the scale of the problem and potential impact of climate change; the issues for policy formation; and, the priorities for allocation of time and resources.
Timely solutions are necessary and can be found, but only by focussing on key deliverables. This meeting is intended to be the first in a series of events exploring solutions for raising water use efficiency and delivering more crop per drop.
Who should attend:
- Policy managers
- Academics in the field
- R&D managers
- Marketing and business development managers
- Investment decision makers
- Media
