The Algae Biomass Summit (ABS) is hosted by the Algae Biomass Organization (ABO), a non-profit trade association and the unified voice of the algae industry. ABO is the leading U.S. algae biomass association and hosts the world’s longest-standing algae-focused conference.
Working on behalf of all sectors, ABO advocates for algae-advancing policy and funding, serves as a hub for innovation and networking, and drives demand for “made with algae” products and services.
For 20 years, ABS has brought together commercial leaders, entrepreneurs, scientists, policymakers, investors, and emerging innovators who share a passion for driving innovation forward and building the algae and seaweed economy.
The 2026 Algae Biomass Summit will take place October 12–15, 2026, in Tempe, Arizona, at Arizona State University’s Memorial Union. The agenda will deliver fresh perspectives, commercial breakthroughs, and exciting research that are propelling algae and seaweed products and services as vital solutions for a low-carbon, sustainable world.
This event convenes real-world buyers across algae markets including food and feed, carbon capture, sustainability, regenerative agriculture, wastewater, energy, education and academia, climate solutions, and more. ABS brings together decision-makers and thought leaders from around the world focused on algae and seaweed.
