CBB session and B2B meetings at AEBIOM Bioenergy Conference

The 3rd AEBIOM Bioenergy Conference was held on 25-27 June 2012, at the Renaissance Brussels Hotel. 237 participants attended to this conference, being more than 90% of them companies.

CBB organized one session during the conference dedicated to market attractiveness in which the

project results were presented. The consortium of the project was present during AEBIOM conference

to show the results of the project. Jean-Marc Jossart, Secretary General of AEBIOM, gave an

introduction of the project and presented some project results for different bioenergy sectors that have

been studied (biogas, biomethane, small scale heat, CHP, district heating, biodiesel and bioethanol).

In addition to the comprehensive online platform, a Bioenergy B2B platform has been launched. Christian Grundner from Eclareon showed online how to use the GIS tool as well as the B2B portal where companies can be in touch with local market players, and follow up with contacts in regions that are attractive for the development of their business.

Emilio Font de Mora, EACI Project Officer gave a presentation during this session given also an introduction to the IEE programme.

Besides the dedicated session, the second day of the conference, CBB organized B2B meetings with the purpose of helping companies to establish cross-border partnership and help them in their internationalization. 37 companies for 14 different countries participated in this initiative and 54 bilateral meetings were organized. The list of participants of the B2B meeting is included at the end of this report.

It has to be mentioned that during the two days conference, it was one computer in the lobbying area were the project results were shown by Cristina Calderón, AEBIOM, to those people who were interested. This opportunity of a life explanation was announce several times over a loudspeaker to the conference participants. Besides CBB logo was displayed in all the conference information material and in the conference website. Therefore the project consortium believes that the Final Conference achieved a good promotion for the project.
