Biomass Biorefinery Network
Biomass Biorefinery Network (BBNet) is a new academic organisation providing funding and networking events for biomass research. It supports a growing community of members consisting of researchers, academics and people in industry.
The brief
BBNet required a professional and information-rich website which would allow them to recruit new members and disseminate information to them. The site also needed to include a portal where members could learn about upcoming conferences, networking events, and funding opportunities.
The website
With existing branding in place to provide style cues, we designed a modern, attractive and highly usable website front end providing clear calls to action and a straightforward user journey. We implemented a user-friendly sign-up system and built a feature-rich members’ portal which enables members to interact with BBNet and each other.
The result
As well as giving BBNet a professional online presence, the new website has enabled BBNet to manage and communicate with over 600 members. The members’ portal allows BBNet to efficiently share information with its members; and enables these users to quickly and easily access information about funding and upcoming events.
