Organised by EuropaBio, this inaugural event will feature two workshops, networking sessions and a two day forum with approximately 30 leading speakers who will assess the prospects for industrial biotechnology in Europe, through presentations, question-and-answer sessions and panel discussions.

Bringing together a high level Advisory Board and a senior and international group of biotechnology producers, chemicals and plastics suppliers, biomass and biorefineries, and end users from a wide variety of industries and academia, EFIB2008 will provide the perfect meeting place for science, industry, policymakers and investors of industrial biotechnology.
