When Global Aquaculture Comes Together
The concept
Global Aqua has been developed as a comprehensive international arena for the entire aquaculture ecosystem. The exhibition provides space to showcase technology, solutions, and services from across the value chain, and serves as a platform for the industry’s most innovative players. In parallel, the conference brings together leading voices from politics, finance, research, sustainability, and innovation for discussions that set the direction for the industry’s further development.
Why exhibit?
Global Aqua connects exhibitors with the people who shape the future of aquaculture, from producers and technology providers to investors, policymakers and industry leaders across the value chain. By exhibiting, you gain access to decision-makers, global visibility in an international exhibition and conference environment, and business opportunities through new partnerships, customer relationships and market connections.
Background
Aquaculture is taking on a more important role in the global food system. Demand for seafood continues to grow, while expectations around sustainability, documentation and production methods are becoming increasingly demanding. Delivering on these expectations depends on how effectively the industry is able to develop knowledge, technology, capital and regulation together.
This was the starting point for Global Aqua. We did not begin by asking what kind of event the industry needed – we asked what kind of meeting place makes it easier to move the industry forward in a way that reflects the challenges it is actually working through today.
Who is behind it?
Global Aqua is developed through a partnership between AqKva and Norwegian Promotion Group (NPG). Together we combine deep industry understanding from aquaculture with extensive experience in developing and delivering international meeting places, exhibitions and events. The goal is to create an arena that brings the entire value chain together and contributes to the development of the aquaculture industry of tomorrow.
