Unique opportunity to be a guest participant at our Seafood Next course in Trondheim

Research, technology and aquaculture in practice

What does the future of the seafood industry look like? How can innovation and new technology help improve fish welfare, streamline production and create more sustainable growth? 

We are opening a limited number of places at the Seafood Next conference in Trondheim and Hitra on January 26-28. Over three days, you will gain unique insight into the entire aquaculture value chain through company visits, professional presentations and meetings with some of the industry's most exciting companies and expertise environments. 

This is a rare opportunity to get up close to both the research, technology and practical production that shape the seafood industry of the future.

This is what you will experience

Visit to SINTEF Ocean 

We start the collection with a visit to SINTEF Ocean, where you will gain insight into the role of research communities in the development of the Norwegian seafood industry. 

Among other things, you will hear how new technology is used to analyze fish welfare and see demonstrations in some of SINTEF's advanced laboratories.

From hatchery to slaughterhouse on Hitra

One of the highlights of the conference is the day at Hitra, where participants get to experience the aquaculture industry up close through visits to a slaughterhouse, hatchery and food fish farms. Along the way, you will gain insight into how the fish is followed through key parts of the value chain, and how technology, biology and operations interact in modern aquaculture production. 

The day also offers a spectacular RIB trip between the locations, where you get to experience the Trøndelag coast from the sea. The combination of professional content, company visits and nature experiences makes this one of the highlights of Seafood Next. 

Meet leading technology companies 

Through the gathering, we meet companies that are developing technology, feed and solutions for the aquaculture of the future. You will gain insight into current challenges, new solutions and the opportunities that lie ahead for the industry.
