Seagriculture EU 2023, the leading conference for the seaweed industry, will be taking place from 21-22 June 2023 in Trondheim, Norway. This two-day event will explore the vast potential of seaweed in various applications such as feed, food, offshore cultivation, investment and business aspects, as well as biorefinery of seaweed and much more.

The two-day programme features a unique conference programme with six plenary sessions and a panel discussion, providing attendees with a comprehensive overview of the latest developments and opportunities in the seaweed industry. Top speakers from the industry will share their knowhow and insights, offering an opportunity to learn from experts in the field.
