01 · The announcement
FREE BSF webinar series Season 3
Since early 2023, we at Manna Insect have organized free insect business webinars to share our experience and expertise in BSF farming, turning biowaste into insect protein and organic fertilizer, and how to do that profitably, anywhere in the world. We are also sharing BSF business cases and providing actual numbers behind the economy of making business out of insect farming.
Here below are the dates and actual registration links for the webinar series season 3, from January 2024 to June 2024. Please note that each webinar needs a separate registration, so we’ll know to whom to send each recording, materials, etc. that the presenters may share.
Remember, registering to the webinars also gives you access to the recordings, even if you don’t have time to join us live during the session! Here are the topics, dates and registration links as well as list of past webinars.
The webinars are hosted by Manna Insect CEO and Founder Ykä Marjanen, whom many of you already may know, and by Saverio Danubio, our sustainability specialist and industrial biotechnologist . Some of the webinars may also have guests speakers, whose names we will announce later.
You’re very welcome to join! In case you missed the two first seasons of Manna Insect BSF webinar series in 2023, scroll down to see the topics and to get free recordings of the webinars and Q&A:s!
