NewTechAqua Final Conference: Tools & Strategies for a Sustainable Aquaculture
Brussels, Belgium | November 15, 2023 | Time: 09:00
Discover new solutions and inspiring policy sessions on challenges and opportunities for sustainable aquaculture production and consumption in the European Union.
Aquaculture is the fastest growing food-producing sector. It delivers nutritious food to a growing world population,creates jobs and economic development in coastal and rural communities and helps mitigate climate change. However, it is necessary to address relevant challenges for the sustainable growth of EU aquaculture.
The NewTechAqua project is organising its Final Conference on 15 November 2023 in Brussels to present its finals results and innovations, as well as the solutions of the winners of its Award Challenge to bring economical, environmental, and social benefits to the sector. The event will gather policymakers, producers, researchers, and startups, and organise policy roundtables to discuss the challenges and opportunities for the future of the sector.
NewTechAqua is a 4-year-research project funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovationprogramme. NewTechAqua’s main goal is to expand and diversify European aquaculture production of finfish, molluscs and microalgae by developing and validating technologically advanced, resilient and sustainable applications.
