Global SAF Feedstock & Bioeconomy Forum

Securing Sustainable Feedstocks, Unlocking Regional Bioeconomies & Building Global Partnerships
08 September 2027 | Afternoon | QEII Centre, London

The Global SAF Feedstock & Bioeconomy Forum brings together governments, global agricultural groups, feedstock suppliers, energy companies, biofuel producers and technology providers to advance feedstock security and international cooperation across the sustainable aviation fuel industry.

 

With a strategic focus on North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Middle East, the forum will explore regional feedstock opportunities, national bioeconomy strategies and cross-border partnerships to strengthen global SAF supply chains.

​​

From agricultural development and waste-based feedstocks to advanced biomass, international sourcing and integrated biorefining, the discussions will examine how countries and industry leaders can mobilise resources, accelerate investment and build diversified, sustainable and commercially viable feedstock supply networks.

Who Will You Meet?

and more...

What to Expect:

  • From Molecule to Wing: How can the industry bridge the last mile from supply to aircraft uplift?

  • Airport Hubs & Partnerships: How can airports evolve into energy hubs, becoming central nodes for SAF storage, blending, and distribution?

  • Transport & Storage Bottlenecks: What is constraining SAF movement and storage today—and what practical solutions exist?

  • Physical Delivery and Book & Claim: How can physical infrastructure and operational delivery models work alongside book-and-claim systems to accelerate SAF scale?

​

Who Should Attend:

  • Airports & Fuel Infrastructure Operators (Airports / Fuel Consortia / Terminals / Storage): Build airport readiness for SAF—storage, blending interfaces, distribution design, and operational planning to support reliable uplift.

  • Fuel Suppliers & Logistics Providers (Fuel Suppliers / Blenders / Pipeline / Trucking / Marine): Solve end-to-end delivery execution, including routing, capacity constraints, quality assurance, and day-to-day coordination from terminal to aircraft.

  • Traders & Market Intermediaries (Energy / Commodity / SAF Traders): Structure title transfer, allocation, and delivery-linked contracts that connect physical flows with traceability requirements and market scaling.
