Advanced Fermentation Technology 2026
New frontiers in Industrial Biotechnology
30 June – 1st July 2026
1.5 day Scientific Congress
Bridging Fundamental Research and Industrial Innovation
University of Lille – Scientific Campus
At Polytech-Lille Av. Paul Langevin, 59655 Villeneuve-d’Ascq
Context and objectives
Context : This congress is supported by the ADEBIOTECH think tank and the VALOREEMA industrial chair of the University of Lille (Valorization by Extration, Enzyme and Microorganism of Agroressources)
The scientific objectives of such a congress are :
- To advance fundamental understanding of microbial and metabolic mechanisms underpinning fermentation technology
- To explore innovative biotechnological and engineering approaches for optimizing production
- To foster meaningful dialogue between academic researchers and industry leaders to accelerate the translation of scientific discoveries into scalable applications
- To initiate new collaboration between academic and industrial researcher
The program is currently being developed around the following themes:
Session 1 – Selecting and Engineering Robust Strains for efficient fermentation
Session 2 – Advanced Fermentation Systems
Session 3 – Control Strategies, Machine Learning and Digital Twins for Bioprocess Design
Session 4 – Autonomous Bioprocessing for Industrial Scalability
Session 5 – Translational Bioprocessing: From laboratory scale to Industry
