Algal Biomass Events

2008 Algae Biomass Summit

Please join us for the second Algae Biomass Summit as we survey the emerging industry exploring the use of algae as a feedstock for biofuels and other sustainable commodities. Over the course of two days, we will hear from technologists, producers, scientists, investors, and policymakers on issues of critical importance to this emerging industry including the commercial viability of algae production, current government and private initiatives, evolving technologies, processing concepts, and venture and project finance.
