Log Bergjord is one of the most respected leaders in global aquaculture. As former chief executive officer of Skretting, she led the world’s largest aquafeed company through a period of international growth and sustainability leadership. She currently serves on the boards of Kverva, Nordic Aqua Partners and other major players shaping the future of seafood.
Her appointment comes as artificial intelligence is reshaping industry practices - and as Aquaticode accelerates its role in this shift. With growing adoption of artificial intelligence phenotyping in hatcheries, the timing reflects both industry momentum and strategic intent. The company recently announced new commercial agreements covering over 60 million fish to be scanned using Aquaticode technology.
“AI is finally delivering real value in aquaculture,” said Log Bergjord in a press release, “Aquaticode’s approach is precise, scalable and grounded in biology. It’s not just smart tech - it’s good farming.”
Aquaticode’s flagship product, SORTpro, uses multi-angle and multi-spectrum imaging, deep learning, and real-time robotics to sort juvenile fish based on phenotype traits such as gender, deformities, damages, and signs of disease. The system is built on patented technology that enables high-speed, non-invasive assessment of fish health and quality. This allows hatcheries to group fish more effectively from the start - improving welfare, performance, and long-term outcomes.
“Sorting by size is like picking players based on height. We help hatcheries pick based on potential instead.”” said chief executive officer Stian Rognlid.
Aquaticode highlights that Log Bergjord’s involvement sends a clear signal: the industry’s most experienced leaders are betting on artificial intelligence phenotyping as the next critical capability for sustainable aquaculture.
With several major deployments underway and new use cases on the horizon, Aquaticode is entering a new phase of commercial growth.
“Therese brings sharp strategic insight, a deep understanding of biology and business, and a global perspective. We’re proud to have her in our corner,” said Rognlid.
