A new collaboration between one of the West’s most advanced seaweed technology providers and one of the sector’s most effective product developers could help the nascent industry reach critical mass.
While aquaculture has not always been well-received around the Greek islands, one family has managed to combine fish farming with tourism, suggesting that the two sectors can successfully co-exist.
The seaweed sector could dramatically reduce costs and improve operational efficiencies if – like the space sector – it did more of the work from the comfort and safety of shore bases, according to Joyeeta Das, CEO of Samudra Oceans.
Mussel farming can help to restore and regenerate aquatic ecosystems and there are a number of emerging companies and projects that - if successful - could help to spark a much-needed renaissance in the sector.
