GLOBAL BIOENERGIES
Global Bioenergies SA is a French société anonyme registered in France under SIREN 508596012 (SIRET 50859601200023), incorporated on 25 August 2008 and registered with the Evry Commercial Court. Its registered office is in Évry-Courcouronnes, Essonne. The company developed proprietary fermentation-based technology converting renewable, plant-derived resources into isobutene, a bio-based hydrocarbon building block historically used in polymers, rubber and cosmetics ingredients such as isododecane, and more recently adapted toward sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and electro-SAF production using ASTM-certified conversion routes.
From 2008, Global Bioenergies pursued industrial-scale demonstration of its bio-isobutene process and, at various points in its history, referenced joint research and development work with industrial partners in the chemicals, automotive and aviation-fuel sectors; the current status of any such collaborations is not confirmed in the sources reviewed for this profile. Global Bioenergies shares were admitted to trading on Euronext Growth Paris under ticker ALGBE (ISIN FR0011052257).
In autumn 2024, unable to secure financing for its own first production plant, the company redirected its work toward a research collaboration with an international industrial partner on aviation-fuel production. By 31 December 2024, Global Bioenergies held approximately 3.0 million euros in cash against approximately 13.1 million euros in bank debt. Unable to secure new investment, the company launched a pre-pack disposal process in June 2025, entered judicial receivership (redressement judiciaire) on 29 September 2025, and, after two takeover bids were rejected by the Commercial Court of Évry on 24 November 2025, was placed into judicial liquidation on 2 December 2025, with its shares subsequently delisted from Euronext Growth Paris.

Shareholders
Shareholders of Global Bioenergies
As a company listed on Euronext Growth Paris, Global Bioenergies disclosed shareholder information only for holders crossing statutory notification thresholds rather than publishing a complete shareholder register. Following a capital-raising operation completed around June 2025, BOLD (Business Opportunities for L’Oréal Development), an investment vehicle linked to L’Oréal, became the company’s largest disclosed shareholder, reported to hold approximately 13.5% of share capital. A representative of BOLD was subsequently appointed as a non-voting censor and then joined the Board of Directors. Marc Delcourt, the company’s co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, was separately reported to hold approximately 2.7% of share capital. No source reviewed distinguished share-capital percentages from voting-rights percentages, and the completeness of the disclosed free float below reporting thresholds could not be confirmed. On 2 December 2025, the Commercial Court of Évry converted Global Bioenergies’ judicial receivership into judicial liquidation; the company has stated that, as a result, the value of its shares became null for all shareholders, and the shares were subsequently delisted from Euronext Growth Paris.
Data availability
Major shareholders only: available information is limited to shareholders that crossed statutory disclosure thresholds under Euronext Growth rules; no complete shareholder register was located. Following the December 2025 liquidation, disclosed equity holdings no longer carry value.

Directors and officers of Global Bioenergies
Registry-sourced records held on file (dated 11 August 2026) associate five individuals with Global Bioenergies: Marc Delcourt (recorded role: co-founder, CEO and Chairman, appointed 1 January 2008), Philippe Marlière (Director, born September 1955), John William Pierce (Director, appointed 22 February 2017), Alexandra Moncada (Legal Director), and Pierre Frédéric Emmanuel Monsan (Administrator, born June 1948). That underlying feed flags most of these individuals’ work status as resigned, which is inconsistent with Marc Delcourt’s confirmed, continuing role as Chief Executive Officer, so the resignation flags should be treated with caution rather than as confirmed current status. Independently, the company’s own announcements confirm that Corinne Granger served as Chair of the Board of Directors until her mandate expired at the annual general meeting of 15 May 2025, and that Marc Delcourt, already Chief Executive Officer, was elected Chairman of the Board immediately afterward, combining both roles. No nationality is disclosed for any individual in the sources reviewed.
