SHAPE THE FUTURE PreparingtheVisionPaper A Vision Paper for “Global Aquaculture Solutions” with work commencing well ahead of the conference. This is a responsibility of an international work group appointed and lead by R&D Director Kjell Maroni of The Norwegian Seafood Research Fund. Based on a mandate formed in interaction with the Innovation Day Chair, Karl Almås, CEO SINTEF Fishery & Aquaculture, the group will develop a vision paper on which major solutions are needed to expand global aquaculture substantially. Ahead of the conference, Dr. Maroni will request a one-page memo from each of the chairs of the Think Tanks on how they see their main needs in their individual fields. The vision paper group will present a brief synthesis of major important recommended measures (shortlist) during the Innovation Day, also including inputs from the Think Tank workshop. The vision paper will be completed after the conference and made available through targeted distribution to decision makers and for mass distribution The “landscape” of challenges and opportunities. Highly regarded players in the sector share their visions and recommendations on how and where to move to develop “blue food” for the world and thus set the agenda for the day.
SPECIAL PRICE Members andstudents discount!
The Think Tank Session will interact with the vision paper committee as described above and the chairs of the Think Tanks will do the plenary summing up reports, again with focus on short list solutions. The general topics are carefully selected to cover in the best possible way all tracks of solutions to be pursued to advance global aquaculture in the most cost efficient and sustainable way. The five categories will be reflected all through the Marine Innovation Day activities: in Think Tanks, in The Vision Paper, in the delegate grouping for one2one-meetings and also for grouping the innovative cases.
FIND YOUR MATCH!
Match making or one2one-meetings . In advance of the confer-

A GLOBAL CHALLENGE
Howexpandglobalaquaculture manyfold, sustainably? The marine nation Norway is challenging the world with the question on how to expand global aquaculture manyfold, sustainably. According to MareLife CEO Øystein Lie and Senior Advisor Jon Aulie this will be the main question when internatinoal leaders in marine innovation meet at NASF Marine Innovation Day in Bergen, March 5th, as part of the three day seafood congress North Atlantic Seafood Forum (NASF - This is one of mankind's main themes: How to supply enough food in line with population growth and how to expand global aquaculture in a sustainable manner as an important response to this challenge, says professor Øystein Lie. - We do not only pose the big questions, we also proposes sustainable solutions to grow food in the marine sector. Aulie and Lie forms together with MareLife chairman Carl Seip Hanevold and Project Manager Erik Fedde Lopez, the managment team of the growing network of innovative marine companies and institutions, MareLife, headquartered at Oslo Science Park. - We don't neccessary need more public reports to conclude that the marine sectors is the main industry of the future, and that the world needs new solutions to build the “blue” food production in a size and format that can contribute significantly to the total food supply, says professor Lie. He and Mr. Aulie state that the sector is only at the starting line with marine sector's food contribution to a mere 2 percent of the total, global food production. - Now we need solutions so the aquatic and marine food production can relieve som of the pressure which rests on the aqricultural food supply, says Jon Aulie.
The Norwegian Seafood Research Fund
Lie and Aulie say the NASF Marine Innovation Day points to suchs solutions. Through a variety of activites the delegates are challenged across sectors and disciplines, mobilizing a set of qualified input together with exposure to a variety of innovative cases. The Marine Innovation Day includes lectures where the best players in global aquaculture will set the agenda, followed by workshops ("Think Tanks") in specialized fields such as requierements for farming space, science and technology (genetics / breeding, vaccinations / disease control, nutrition / feed), engineering and equipment solutions for next generation aquaculture and processing, human health, market innovation and not least how to utilize existing materials (traditional fishing) and new materials (eco fisheries, growing algae, new agricultural commodities etc). The innovation day will produce a vision paper, Global Aquaculture Solutions, prepared partly in advance of the conference and partly based on input during the conference. Innovative cases will be presented, as well as an Innovation Award ceremony. NASF Marine Innovation Day is organized by Mare Life in partnership with FHF, Fisheries Forum Vest, Storby Marin, NASF, EATIP, Global Aquaculture Alliance (GAA) and Biomarine Business Convention.
