NEWS 12 FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE March 2026 The 16th edition of AquaVision will take place in Stavanger, Norway from 8-10 June 2026. Hosted by Skretting and its parent company Nutreco, the biennial aquaculture business conference brings together global leaders to discuss the role of sustainable blue food in feeding a growing world population. “With AquaVision, Skretting and Nutreco are providing an arena for the aquaculture and food industries to build connections, hear diverse perspectives, and address shared challenges. We must remain agile – navigating global politics, keeping pace with technologies such as AI, and responding swiftly to shifting regulations and market expectations particularly on sustainability,” says Maarten Bijl, CEO of Skretting. “Striking the right balance between speed, collaboration, and scientific credibility is how the industry will ride the next wave and emerge stronger together. I look forward to AquaVision 2026, and seeing how we can collectively drive sustainable growth for the future of aquaculture.” “Navigating the global geopolitical landscape: Impacts and opportunities for the aquaculture industry” and “Beyond tomorrow: Pioneering innovations shaping the future of the industry” have been announced as the two key themes to be explored at AquaVision 2026. According to Skretting, in a world increasingly shaped by geopolitical uncertainty, shifting alliances, and regulatory complexity, businesses must stay agile in order to thrive. The company emphasizes that at AquaVision 2026, participants will explore how the global geopolitical climate is influencing economic landscapes, international trade, supply chain resilience, and consumer behaviour in the aquaculture sector and beyond. Renowned experts from different regions will contribute their perspectives to these discussions.
