FARMŸNG project will organise a satellite event at the CLIB International Conference CIC2023 to be held on the 14^th and 15^th February 2023 in Düsseldorf, Germany.

Since 2009, the CLIB International Conference is the meeting place for the industrial biotechnology community. It brings together international experts from all over the world to discuss the how biotechnology can make the difference on a larger scale.

To contribute to the sustainability goals, the bioeconomy’s biorefineries will have to strive towards closing all loops. How can a zero-waste biorefinery be built and its supply with sustainably sourced feedstock ensured? How can all product streams be valorised? These are topics the conference focuses on during the second day of the CIC2023 in the FARMŸNG Satellite Event: Zero-waste biorefinery concepts. We will take inputs from this project’s first-of-a-kind vertical large-scale insect farm and expand the scope towards other value chains in the sessions

• Planning and Building,
• Finding the right feedstock, and
• Valorising all product streams.

The sessions will be framed by keynote presentations from academia, industry, and investors.

While on the first day of the CIC2023, the agenda focuses on levers in this monumental transformation, highlighting where biotechnology can really make a difference: to harness sustainable resources, to enable innovative processes, and ultimately to close the carbon cycle. Listen to presentations from academia, SMEs, and industry in the sessions

• Feedstock-agnostic processes,
• Innovative production systems, and
• Future carbon circles.
