    Gong for first listing anniversary Avantium

    Avantium CEO Tom van Aken sounds the Euronext gong together with the company’s Zambezi team. Today, chemical technology company Avantium celebrates its first anniversary as a listed company.

    Avantium’s revolutionary renewable chemistry solutions span from invention to commercially viable production processes. Together with partners around the world, Avantium develops efficient processes and sustainable products made from biobased materials. The company is based in Amsterdam and its shares are listed on Euronext Amsterdam and Euronext Brussels (ticker symbol: AVTX).
