ACE Accepting Speaker Abstracts for 2026 Annual Ethanol Conference

The American Coalition for Ethanol (ACE) is now accepting presentation abstracts for its 39th annual conference, taking place August 19-21, 2026, at the Minneapolis Marriott City Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

As one of the ethanol industry's longest-running events, the ACE Conference brings together ethanol producers, farmers, retailers, researchers, policymakers, and other industry leaders to explore opportunities to expand markets for ethanol and strengthen rural economies.

ACE is seeking speakers to deliver presentations and remarks that resonate with ethanol producers and key stakeholders across the value chain. Speaking opportunities are available during general sessions on the mornings of August 20 and 21, as well as breakout sessions on the afternoon of August 20. General sessions will feature a mix of individual presentations and panel discussions, while breakout sessions will include panels of speakers organized across three primary tracks: Carbon, Leadership & Management, and Technology.

"The ACE Conference is a premier platform for sharing ideas, showcasing innovation, and addressing the most pressing challenges and opportunities facing our industry," said Katie Muckenhirn, ACE Vice President of Public Affairs. "We encourage thought leaders from across the ethanol industry to submit proposals that will help drive meaningful conversations and practical solutions for our members."

The deadline to submit a presentation abstract is Friday, April 24, 2026.
