BioCleantech – the sustainable use of agriculture, forestry and municipal biomass resources for energy, fuels and products – builds upon Canada's economic and human resource strengths while addressing our global commitments to tackle climate change.
Join us for a vibrant discussion on why BioCleantech is key to meeting Canada's 2030 GHG targets and how BioCleantech can utilize existing skills and infrastructure, combined with Canadian innovation, to strengthen and diversify our economy.
The Benefits of Sustainable Biomass As a Source of Energy

BIOCLEANTECH IS CANADA'S COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE IN CLIMATE & INNOVATION.
Canada has a tremendous opportunity to build upon its inherent strengths and take a cleantech leadership position in the production of bioenergy and bioproducts produced from sustainable biomass.
On November 1-3, 2016, policy makers, large GHG emitters, NGOs, and biomass feedstock and technology suppliers will gather in Ottawa for a dialogue on the deployment of Canada's biomass resources to reduce GHG emissions, generate significant employment, and serve as the basis for an innovation-rich sustainable economy.
Who should attend?
Senior members of federal, provincial and local governments, along with industry representatives, academia, members of the financial community, NGOs and innovators from every sector will want to join in this dialogue.
Where and when?
The BioCleantech Forum will be held in Ottawa – Canada's Capital – from November 1–3, 2016.
