On 24 March 2026, Europe’s bio-based community will gather in Brussels for the CBE JU Stakeholder Forum 2026, focused on one key question:
The forum will bring together CEOs, industry leaders, EU decision-makers, and innovators to discuss scaling up bio-based technologies beyond the pilot phase. Topics include industrial demonstration, market deployment, access to finance, regulation, skills, and infrastructure—at a crucial moment for Europe’s bioeconomy and industrial transition.
Highlights include high-level policy discussions, real-world lessons from CBE JU-funded projects, and an exhibition of 40+ market-ready bio-based solutions.
