Isaac Berzin, founder and CTO of Vaxa Technologies, explains how an innovative microalgae farming technique could make his vision for carbon neutral farmed salmon a reality.
Fish farmers in Nigeria are suffering from the high costs and unreliable nature of key inputs, causing numerous players to leave the sector, despite the country’s growing demand for fish.

Following successful feed trials with the world’s largest salmon producer, Rare Earth Global believes that the stage is set for hemp to become a mainstream – and considerably more sustainable – alternative to soy in aquafeeds.
AlgiSys BioSciences, which has developed a proprietary strain of microalgae for aquafeeds that’s rich in EPA omega-3 and alternative protein, is currently looking to raise $5 million to enable commercial-scale production.
Anthony Bellafiore, investment manager at Katapult Ocean, one of Europe’s leading aquaculture and bluetech VCs, believes that it’s too soon to write off the West's fledgling seaweed sector.
