The webinar was held in association with our Panel Partner Krucial, which has developed connectivity and communications networks for fish farms and other businesses operating in challenging marine environments.

The panel was made up of Kevin Quillien, CTO and Cofounder, Krucial; Professor Keith Davidson of the Scottish Association for Marine Science, SAMS; Kristian Blom, CEO of AquaCloud in Norway; and joining us from Tasmania, Tim Shepherd, Senior Manager, Smart Farming and Feed with aquaculture business Tassal.

Questions addressed by the panel included:

What are the challenges in digitising fish farm operations?
How transparent should the industry be with the data it collects?
Can remote monitoring highlight signs of disease? And
What lessons can aquaculture learn from other marine sectors and from the latest thinking in land-based agriculture?
