REPORT | BIO360 EXPO 2020 EVENT NANTES 1

AN EXCEPTIONAL YEAR FOR BIO360 EXPO 2020 KEY NUMBERSBio360 Expo posted record attendance figures at the 2020 edition in Nantes on 30-31 January :> an overall 7% increase in participant attendance, up from 6500 in 2019 to over 7000 professionals in 2020> a 30% increase in exhibitors, up from 343 to more than 450 exhibiting companies

Expanded thematic coverage and a new name to match “Bio360 Expo”

The 2020 edition was equally noteworthy for a significant broadening of the thematic coverage of the event to encompass all aspects of bioenergy and the bioeconomy.

At the same time, the birth of the new name Bio360 Expo (representing a fusion of our three historical events Biogaz Europe, Bois Energie and Regen Europe), creates a single identity around which to galvanise the collective effort to transition from a fossil to a bio-society. It provides a platform to examine and optimise the application of agricultural and forestry resources for sustainable bioenergy and a biobased future.

A growing international hubInternational attendance rates also more than doubled with 12% international visitors recorded, up from 5% in previous years. This marked increase could also be felt passing through the alleys where participants from 35 countries and 4 continents generated a very palpable multi-lingual buzz. International exhibitors also grew significantly to a new level of 39%, totalling 179 international exhibitors.

Multiple conferences with simultaneous translation (English/French) covering a broad spectrum of subjects relating to bioenergy and the bioeconomy, a rich international panel of high-level speakers and the nomination and focus on a Country of the Year also contributed significantly to the international visibility of the event and the internationalisation of the attendee base.

The Bio360 Expo trajectory is one of a leading international hub for the bioenergy and bioeconomy sectors.

International conferencesThe Conferences, covering a wide range of topics, also generated the significant presence of more than 50 international experts from 15 countries, whose views and know-how greatly contributed to the richness of the experience and the success of the event.

The international dimension of the conference program supported by simultaneous translation was a key factor in enabling a rich exchange between leading experts and cross fertilization of ideas with the attending participants.

The Nordics Country of the Year The Nordics were selected as Country of the Year 2020.

In choosing the Nordic region as the country of the year 2020, the ambition was to create a particular focus on fostering greater exchange between representatives from the luminary Nordics - principally Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland - on the one-hand and actors from France and other European countries on the other.

35 leading Nordic bioenergy companies and organisations participated in 2020 under the Country of the Year banner all but one of which was new to the event generating a sense of auspicious beginnings on which to build for the future. We look forward to welcoming back Nordic country representations at future editions of Bio360 Expo.

Study toursA large number of Study Tours including ten exemplary bioenergy sites in the Pays de la Loire region were open to the entire international bioenergy sector. More than 150 participants took up the opportunity to visit industrial biomass cogeneration sites and municipal heating plants, biogas producing and biomethane upgradging installations, CO2 capture and power-to-gas demonstration sites, waste-to-energy etc.

> “The study tours are complementary with the show, they allow to see a boiler in real operation and also to benefit from the feedback of the operators”

> “Very interesting visits by the diversity of the sites by their technology and their size. Dry unit visits are rarely offered, and having in the same day, a unit of “standard” size and a very large one was very appreciable. The visit to the reverse station was also interesting.”

The Innovation CompetitionThe Bio360 Expo Innovation Competition, a keenly anticipated highlight of the event, awards a “Golden Trophy” and one or more “Silver Trophies” to the most important innovations of the year. The innovations concerned cover both products and services and are judged by a jury of professionals in the sector, renowned for their experience and impartiality.The Bio360 Expo 2020 Innovation award winners : https://bit.ly/3icsCEa
