Residues2Revenues 2025 – keynote presentations

Friday 22 Aug 2025

 
Following a record turnout of over 200 attendees last year, the programme for the upcoming Residues2Revenues 2025 conference continues to expand. Taking place on 21-22 October 2025 in Rotorua, New Zealand, this event focuses on the latest strategies and innovations for converting forestry residues into valuable biofuels, bioenergy, and renewable bioproducts.

This year’s programme is headlined by keynote speaker Don G. Roberts, a distinguished bioenergy expert and the CEO of Canadian-based Nawitka Capital Advisors. With over 40 years of experience in the financial services and clean technology sectors, Roberts will deliver a presentation on ‘Championing Transformation – Global Challenges and Opportunities in Using Forest Resource for High Value Products’.

“We are incredibly excited to welcome a global authority like Don G. Roberts to share his insights,” said Innovatek director, and event organiser, John Stulen. “His perspective, combined with the practical expertise of local industry leaders, will provide attendees with a comprehensive view of the future of the bioeconomy.”

The agenda also features prominent speakers including Shane Batchelor from Red Stag Timber, who will discuss modern sawmill energy systems, alongside key presentations from Genesis Energy and the Government’s Woody Biomass Taskforce.

In a first for the event, Residues2Revenues 2025 will run concurrently with the Bioeconomy Innovations 2025 conference. This unique format allows registered delegates to move freely between both events, gaining a complete understanding of the entire bio-value chain.

Prospective attendees are encouraged to register early to secure significant savings. Super Early Bird rates, offering a discount of up to $400, are available until the deadline this Friday, August 22, 2025.
