5 En Route to the Knowledge Based Bio-Economy (KBBE) Biotechnology will be an important pillar of Europe s economy by 2030, indespensable to sustainable economic growth, employment, energy supply and to maintaining the standard of living. It will be increasingly used in labour-intensive sectors, e.g. industrial processing, pharmaceuticals, agriculture and food. By 2030, the products of white biotechnology and bio-energy will have an estimated one-third share, worth 300bln EUR, of industrial production.
