Mr. Philip Siu is the Co-founder and CEO of EcoCeres, Inc. – a world-leading Bio-refinery Platform on sustainable biomass. He obtained his Bachelor and Master of Arts Degrees from Cambridge University in the 80s’ and completed the Harvard Business School’s Advanced Management Program in 2016.

In an illustrious career spanning 36 years prior to founding EcoCeres, Mr. Siu has led and achieved several ground-breaking milestones. At the turn of the new millennium, Mr. Siu led the design, construction and operation of an Aviation Fuel Tank Farm, the largest in scale of its kind in the world, under a 40 Years’ Franchise with the HK Airport Authority.

In 2008, he developed from ground the business platform on new energy, which aims to develop innovative solutions to upgrade low-value feedstock to high-value products. Sustainable biomass is a key choice of feedstock, and from that a new and independent business platform – EcoCeres evolved in 2021, of which Mr. Siu is the founding CEO. EcoCeres has a strategic focus on the conversion of waste-based biomass into a wide spectrum of biofuels and biopolymers, and is now one of the leading suppliers of renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel. EcoCeres aspires to becoming a global leader in providing de-carbonization solutions much needed by the world to attain carbon neutrality.

My Sustainability Goals for 2023:

We will continue to increase our production of both SAF and cellulosic ethanol and hope to help Hong Kong become a SAF hub by cooperating with the Hong Kong government and local airlines to advocate for supportive policies and regulations to promote SAF development and adoption.
