GEA, the absolute novelty in the coffee capsule sector, has been introduced in San Diego (California – United States), during the sixth edition of Innovation Takes Root – ITR, the world forum on advanced biomaterials organized by NatureWorks LLC, a leading company in the production of polymers of renewable origin.
Innovation Takes Root engages – in three days of meetings, workshops and plenary sessions -, global thought leaders, sustainability professionals, marketers, and business leaders together with scientists and engineers from the biomaterials value chain.
