With the world population set to approach an estimated 9 billion by 2050*, it has become obvious that our finite supply of natural resources will not be able to support the needs of the world in the future. There is a growing and urgent need for renewable biological resources and through this need a vibrant bioeconomy has emerged. The rapidly growing bioeconomy offers organizations and individuals the unique opportunity to expand their product offerings and services in such areas as bioresearch, bioproducts, bioenergy, and more. Success in this new arena requires knowledge of the current trends and forecasts, latest technologies, and innovations as well as new processes and methods.
