LSIWC’s 80th Anniversary Event at BTechPro2026 “Knowledge Transfer & Cooperation”

The Latvian State Institute of Wood Chemistry is celebrating its 80^th birthday next year, and one of the festive highlights will be the event “Knowledge Transfer & Cooperation” on 6 May 2026 at the institute’s Pilot-Scale Hangar, which provides an opportunity to up-scale laboratory processes developed at LSIWC or at the institute’s cooperation partners, reaching TRL 4-6. At the event, guests are invited to visit the institute’s research facilities, meet up with LSIWC’s researchers, and discuss recent and future science-industry success stories in a merry atmosphere.

The event will be part of the International Conference for Young Scientists on Biorefinery Technologies and Products BTechPro2026. Participants of the conference will have the exclusive opportunity to join in the celebration of LSIWC’s strong history in biomass conversion technologies and future perspectives for a knowledge-based bioeconomy.
