About the event
A ‘virtual visit' of Indian aquaculture policy makers and research leaders to the UK
This initiative aims to foster policy exchange, science and innovation partnerships between both the countries that can deliver a tangible impact on improving aquaculture stock productivity and develop a sustainable system that maintains the quality, demand and supply based needs of the sector. The visit programme will involve interactive sessions and facility “tours” for high-level officials and academics that represent the sector in India with leading institutions and research facilities in the UK.
So here’s a real opportunity to explore a diverse array of technological innovations and collaboration opportunities through this engagement!
