Innovative biorefinery concepts
Cosun Beet Company - Biobased Experts was invited to present at the 24th Annual Green Chemistry & Engineering Conference. An invitation we gladly and proudly accepted. The presentation focussed on our developments towards sustainable functional ingredients for the home and personal care industry, based on innovative biorefinery concepts on agricultural side streams.
On June 15th, Mr. Robert Nolles, Director of Marketing & Sales, gave an pre-recorded presentation within the session “Enabling a Circular Economy for Materials in the Consumer Goods Industry”. This virtual presentation was followed by a live Q&A with the attendees afterwards to create more interaction.
This combination of virtual and online interacting with stakeholders, customers, society, etc. is new for our company and like many others we looking for alternative ways to get in touch as long as face to face meetings are more difficult. This first event showed us the possibilities how to get connected and was a valuable experience for us. Definitely to be continued in the future.
If you would like to know more about the conference and our presentation, please see below.
