Bioeconomy as a Development Engine: Building Regenerative Value Chains

// // Roundtable

Host: Ambition Loop

The bioeconomy can diversify local incomes while protecting ecosystems. This session maps investable value chains (e.g., forest-compatible products, biobased materials, agroforestry commodities), de-risking instruments, and policy signals that turn pilots into markets.
Objectives:
(1) Identify “bankable” bioeconomy opportunities with clear climate, biodiversity, and community benefits.
(2) Share policy tools (standards, public procurement, fiscal incentives) that grow demand for biobased products.
(3) Showcase early-scale projects and the finance stacks that made them possible.
