24th March

World Biofuels Markets (WBM) is the leading annual industry networking event where the leaders of thebiofuels world meet to drive innovation and do business. Over 5465 high calibre executives from 80 countrieshave attended to date.

Dear Colleague,

When I decide if I am going to participate in a conference, I weigh up the time it takes against the va

lue that it brings me. Following my

attendance last year I have no doubt that this

Congress really leads to accelerating change an

d making sustainable bioenergy and

biomass industries a reality.

World Biofuels Markets is the one congress that is undoubtedly worth my time and coming to Rotterdam is an excellent opportu

nity both

for attendees of the Congress and the city to r

eally develop the next generation of energy. Bi

omass and forestry can be combined to

provide sustainable income for both local people

and farmers overseas in the so called ‘Lula’ model and also be a solu

tion to Europe’s

clean energy needs.

Biomass is a solution to climate change and the ne

w sustainable pathways to liquid low carbon fuels and co-firing biomass for energy can

provide us with a source of clean and cleaner energy. Biom

ass can be sustainable and I am proud of the work the Netherlands ha

s done

so far in the development of the necessary certification systems. Rotterdam is an energy port and

it is evolving to a CO2 Port for new

sustainable forms of energy.

If you are in doubt of whether to attend or not

, just ask yourself: what have you have done recently? This Congre

ss is not just about

enjoyable speeches but about meeting partners, custom

ers and suppliers and actually doing somethin

g. Rotterdamers are famous for

doing and I urge you to attend and help build

this new global industry. Be a part of it.

If there’s only one event you can attend this ye

ar, make sure you join me and 2000 others at World Biofuels Markets.

See you there,

Rudd Lubbers

Keynote Speaker & former Prime Minister, the Netherlands
