Biofuels International expo testimonials

“This was the first Biofuels International Conference I have attended; I was very impressed with the location, the quality of speakers and the range of topics. The Beurs van Berlage in Amsterdam is a beautiful venue, and provided a warm social environment to network with others interested in the Biofuels industry. The diversity of speakers complemented an excellent agenda which covered key topics on European Biofuels Policy, Jatropha and Second Generation Biodiesel and much more. This year I only attended one day, but definitely will attend both days next year.”
- Deborah Burton, managing partner, Oceans Crossing

“We found the conference of great use to Proviron to gain insider views on new opportunities such as emerging feedstocks. There is also a big buzz around sustainability, so it’s important to keep up to date with this from important people in the industry.”
- Stefaan Depecker, commercial director, Proviron

“This is the first time I have attended a biofuels conference and I found the market information provided by the speakers to be excellent as a way to understand processes, general statistics and challenges.”
- Marie Schmidt, global market manager oil & gas, Solvay Advanced Polymers

“Biofuels International expo and conference coincided with our launch into the biofuels market. We found a high level of interest from delegates into our technology. We are open for a dialogue with biofuel producers and we see a clear potential for increasing the profitability of biofuel plants by mining the side streams with our unique protein production technology.”
- Karsten Lindved, CEO, Upfront

“The key issues, different technologies and development of biofuels highlighted in the conference were well-described and a valuable source to us. The networking opportunities and conference were also of the good level we expected.”
- Hémeline Macret, market analyst, Tallage

“Biofuels International expo and conference arrived at a critical time in the biofuels industry and helped to illuminate significant transitions in sustainability policies, such as import/export regulations and next generation feedstocks namely algae and jatropha. This is a vital event for exhibitors and for delegates to capitalise on emerging opportunities.”
- William Thurmond, president, Emerging Markets online

“We had lots of delegates from as far away as South America visit our stand. With the contacts we had, it was certainly justified to be here.”
- Thomas Hielscher, general manager, Hielscher Ultrasound Technology

"For a research organisation offering innovative technologies, it is hard to get a professional insight in the variety of markets and the needs of industry. Biofuels International expo and conference gave me an excellent overview on the current status of bioethanol and a great opportunity to discuss our novel lignocellulose pre-treatment with potential industry partners."
- Dr. Lars Cuypers, patent and license manager, Max Planck Innovation
