Become a Sponsor! 

 

A novelty this edition will be a specific section dedicated to Biomining Start-ups – there is a real excitement and energy around start-up companies in the biomining space, and we would very much welcome your involvement. Please see the website or get in touch to see how your start-up can participate in IBS 2026, with a package that includes a pitch to delegates, shared stand and dedicated space on the website and conference material.

 

Sponsorship opportunities (non-exhaustive) can be found here. IBS 2026 offers a way for organisations to actively support the international biohydrometallurgy community and to engage directly with expert researchers, industry practitioners and the new generation of biomining innovators. The introduction of the new Biomining Start-up section also brings additional visibility to innovation-focused participants—a good match for sponsors wishing to align with emerging technologies and contribute to the development of the field.

 

If your organisation would like to contribute to the success of IBS 2026, we would be very happy to discuss – please get in touch.
