Thank you for joining us at the ISCC Regional Stakeholder Conference for Latin America hosted by the ISCC. The event explored a broad range of regulatory and market developments, including EU sustainability requirements and EUDR compliance. This year’s conference further highlighted opportunities in sustainable fuels, such as clean hydrogen and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Participants later discussed circular economy solutions, traceability, and certified circular materials. The day concluded with interactive roundtables, a co-chair election won by Miguel Ángel Flores, and a valuable networking reception to strengthen the regional collaboration.
