  ABOUT THE SUMMIT  



The Bioeconomy Summit convenes leaders across government, industry, investment, and research to accelerate the transition from breakthrough science to industrial-scale deployment.

As bio-based technologies advance across materials, energy, manufacturing, and health, the challenge is no longer discovery. It is alignment.

Participants engage directly with decision-makers shaping the future of the U.S. bioeconomy, exploring how innovation moves from lab to production, and from pilot to impact.

Co-located within the broader TechConnect event ecosystem, the Bioeconomy Summit offers expanded access to cross-sector partners, funding pathways, and real-world deployment opportunities.

This is a targeted gathering designed to connect the people, systems, and strategies required to build a competitive, scalable bioeconomy.


 

This Summit focuses on the intersection of:

  • Capital and commercialization pathways
  • Policy and national priorities
  • Industrial capacity and supply chains
  • Emerging technologies ready for scale
