From 2 to 5 June 2026, INNOAQUA was present at World Aquaculture Singapore 2026, one of the leading global events for the sector. Hosted at the Singapore EXPO Convention and Exhibition Centre, the conference gathered more than 2,300 participants from over 60 countries, together with 120+ companies at the trade exhibition. Under the theme “High Yield Production Through Nutrition, Health, Genetics and Resources”, the event created a strong platform to exchange knowledge on sustainable aquaculture.
Engaging with a Global Aquaculture Community
INNOAQUA’s presence was ensured through Ana Višković, Project and Programme Manager of the project partner European Aquaculture Society (EAS).
At the conference, INNOAQUA was actively promoted among participants through on-site communication efforts and direct engagement with stakeholders. Project materials were made available to attendees and introduced in discussions across sessions and networking moments. This approach helped raise awareness of INNOAQUA within a highly dynamic and international environment, strengthening its visibility, particularly among audiences from the Asia-Pacific region.
Strengthening Outreach Beyond Europe
World Aquaculture Singapore 2026 confirmed the strategic importance of Asia in the global aquaculture sector. For INNOAQUA, engaging with this region is key. The project develops solutions with global relevance, including:
- Integrated RAS-IMTA systems
- Algae-based food and feed innovations
- Circular aquaculture practices
Through exchanges at the event, these approaches were shared with producers, researchers, and technology providers seeking to increase productivity while reducing environmental impact. The discussions also provided valuable insights into regional priorities and challenges.
Looking Ahead
INNOAQUA’s participation in World Aquaculture Singapore 2026 reinforces its growing international visibility and relevance. By engaging with key stakeholders from across the global aquaculture sector, the project continues to position its algae-based and circular solutions within real market and research contexts, supporting the transition towards more sustainable and resilient aquaculture systems.
