The big announcement today from the Algae Biomass Organization is that Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper will give an opening keynote at the Algae Biomass Summit in Denver on September 24.
From the press release:
“Colorado is home to some of the leading algae research and commercialization efforts and Governor Hickenlooper has been a strong advocate of clean energy and the benefits it can bring in terms of jobs, energy security and environmental sustainability,” said Mary Rosenthal, Executive Director of ABO. “The Governor’s decision to address the Summit is a reflection of how important the expanding algae industry is to finding new sources of renewable fuels, chemicals, feed and food without adverse impacts on water usage or valuable agricultural land.”
The Algae Biomass Summit, the largest algae conference in the world will convene in Denver Sept 24-27. Since it’s beginning six years ago the Summit has become the gathering and networking event for algae entrepreneurs, major corporations, suppliers, manufacturers, producers, end-users and policy experts.
