(Biorenewable Deployment Consortium) The Biorenewable Deployment Consortium (BDC) honored BioAmber
with the organization’s Spring 2017 Outstanding Achievement Award for their leadership and commercial
progress in the biorenewable industry, successfully deploying the largest renewable succinic acid plant in the
world. BioAmber has announced the siting of a second plant to produce biobased BDO and THF.
“The Biorenewable Deployment Consortium is proud to honor BioAmber with its Spring 2017 Outstanding
Achievement Award,” said BDC Co-Founder Harry Seamans. “BioAmber is a great example for the bioindustry
using a combination of technology and business skills to achieve one of the first commercial
successes.” BioAmber is effectively using sugars to produce building block chemicals economically and
further processing these chemicals to high value products that are perfect substitutes for petroleum products.
“BioAmber is proud to be recognized by the Biorenewable Deployment Consortium. We accept this award
on behalf of our global team who are dedicated to our vision of becoming a fast growing producer of
chemical intermediates that use sugar rather than fossil fuel and sells competitively priced, sustainable
chemicals with strong profit margins and the cleanest environmental footprint in the industry,” said Jim
Millis, Chief Technology Officer, who received the award on behalf of BioAmber.
