BETO held the Moving beyond Drop-In Replacements: Performance-Advantaged Biobased Chemicals Workshop on June 1, 2017, in Denver, Colorado. Approximately 90 stakeholders attended, representing companies, national laboratories, government agencies, and academic institutions. A list of workshop attendees who agreed to share their contact information can be found in Appendix A. The breakdown of stakeholders is shown in Figure 3 below. The day began with a keynote presentation from Nichole Fitzgerald of BETO to give participants an overview of the Office’s current work on functional replacements, as well as to outline the goals of the workshop. This was followed by two keynote presentations from industry representatives—Dale McIntyre (Behr Masco) and Michael Saltzberg (DuPont Industrial Biosciences)—on their current work with performance-enhanced biobased chemicals. Participants then attended two breakout sessions in smaller groups to provide feedback. In the afternoon, a third and final keynote—given by Dr. Brent Shanks (Center for Biorenewable Chemicals, Iowa State University)— covered potential strategies for targeting future research in this area, followed by a final breakout session on the same topic. A detailed agenda can be found in Appendix B.
