Join us for an insightful webinar on how biomanufacturing could play a critical role in Australia’s economic security and national resilience.
Biomanufacturing presents a largely untapped industrial opportunity that could address three of Australia's most pressing challenges: enhancing manufacturing resilience, solving environmental issues like aviation emissions and plastic pollution, and offering new export revenues as traditional industries decline. However, scaling this industry faces challenges like infrastructure, feedstocks, and talent. These strategic components, if delivered with coordination, can create a viable biomanufacturing industry that few other emerging technologies can match.
Hosted by Dirk van der Kley, with expert insights from Rob Speight and Michele Stansfield, this webinar will explore how Australia can lead in green, adaptable manufacturing on the global stage.
