The Offshore Mariculture Conference is an international two-day conference focused on the mariculture fish farming business. The 6th edition of this highly regarded Conference will take place at the World Trade Centre in Barcelona, from 6-8 April 2016.

Previous events have been held in Malta, Alicante, Dubrovnik and Izmir, Turkey and Naples, Italy and, over the years the Conference has proven to be an invaluable platform for both networking and bringing together the industry to put forward regulatory change including the Statement of Izmir presented to the UN by the FAO requesting an assessment of the access and operational frameworks for open ocean mariculture in the High Seas.

The conference will benefit fish farmers and is a must attend event for those looking to grow their mariculture farming or high energy site business or for those looking towards moving their operations to offshore.

Topics to be covered this year include:

  • Supply Chain – Farming, Feed, Technology, Processing, value added
  • Unexplained mortality: improving survival rates and increasing profits
  • High Energy sites v. Offshore sites
  • Emerging Markets and technologies
  • Knowledge sharing – farming practises in Northern Europe v Southern Europe

The Offshore Mariculture Conference (OMC) is a must attend event for fish farmers looking to hear from industry experts on the future of the industry as well as to network with other European and international fish farmers to share best practices. OMC will also provide the opportunity to be updated on the latest innovative products and technologies.
