Description

The interaction between bioeconomy and carbon management frameworks can promote circularity by keeping carbon within the economy through reuse, recycling and bioconversion. Biomanufacturing lies at the heart of this transformation through biotechnologies that utilise carbon in biological feedstocks to produce bio-products. However, realising this potential requires targeted and comprehensive investment frameworks that de-risk innovation, build enabling infrastructure and create robust markets for sustainable bio-products. This session explores how de-risking instruments can catalyse investment in biomanufacturing to support capacity scale-up and develop value chains. Drawing on OECD research and analyses, it highlights critical investment gaps, identifies policy levers and examines financial instruments that can mobilise both public and private capital for bioeconomy transitions.
