The bioeconomy clusters (BioBall, CLIB and the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region) are organizing a pitching event at ACHEMA 2024 on June 13, 2024 from 14:00 to 18:00.

In the aforementioned clusters, application-oriented solutions for defossilization of the process industry are developed and marketed by research institutes together with innovative start-ups and companies.

At the event, new materials and their areas of application from the fields of bioplastics, bio-based chemicals and bio-based construction materials will be presented in short pitches in thematic sessions. The technologies presented have been developed and/or tested in North Rhine-Westphalia, Hesse and Baden-Wuerttemberg. After each session, there will be space for networking and direct exchange with the speakers.

The event will take place within the ACHEMA Congress, Room Kontrast, Hall 3, Level Via Ost. We will be happy to provide you with an ACHEMA day ticket free of charge.
