The dates for Aquaculture Europe 2014 have been announced.
AE2014, organised by the European Aquaculture Society (EAS) and AZTI-Tecnalia, will be held from October 14-17 2014 in Donostia–San Sebastián in Spain. The theme of Aquaculture Europe 2014 is ‘Adding Value’.
“The focus of the AE2014 theme is on ‘products’ rather than ‘production’, and the three thematic plenary presentations will focus on this”, said the European Aquaculture Society.
Parallel sessions will allow delegates to present initiative that add value to aquaculture, with a wide range of sessions proposed for abstract submission, and covering production, harvest, processing and commercialisation of aquaculture products.
AE2014 will also feature an international trade exhibition, where Spanish and international companies will present the latest products and services for aquaculture. The EU Forum addressing research funded by the European Community and chaired by members of the European Commission will also take place, as will the EAS Student Group workshop to enable networking and exchange of ideas. Finally the AE2014 Industry Forums will be held, where latest scientific findings related to a particular issue for aquaculture producers in the trout, shellfish and marine fish sectors will be presented and discussed.
