Assess business opportunities to achieve efficiency and cost-reduction to lignocellulosic ethanol production 11:00 Presentation Title to be Confirmed Roland A. Jansen Director Green Investment Solutions 12:00 Panel Q&A 12:15 13:30 LUNCH PANEL DISCUSSION Economic & Political Strategies An interactive debate on economical and regulatory strategies for a secure, sustainable and viable 2G biofuels market; panellists will consider current policies on advanced biofuels development, their effect on the industry and suggested alternatives. We will also consider the impact of incentives for lignofuels production in an interactive debate between regulators, economists, consultants and 2G biofuels producers. Francisco José Domínguez Pérez Department of Biofuels IDAE Jaime Rodrigo Poch Manager CGN Certification Ida Rönnlund Consultant Gaia Consulting Oy Strategic considerations to succeed in industrial biotech ventures Which tech disruptions can we expect? How can venture capital prove a return on investment in high CAPEX investments? Is the current regulatory and incentive framework sufficient? What can improve? Which geographical areas to consider?
