Nordic Seaweed - From Research to Innovative Business Opportunities - Video

Increasing demand for new sustainable marine resources is paving the way for a new industry in the Nordics: Seaweed. It is a promising product, with great investment opportunities, that could be a sustainable source for food, feed and biomedicine in the near future. At the end of September, Nordic Innovation and the Macro Cascade Bio Based Industries project held a two-day event in the Faroe Islands called 'Nordic Seaweed – From Research to Innovative Business Opportunities'. Here we invited industry and researchers from all over Europe to show how they use seaweed to create new products, conduct innovative research, and to speak about the rapid emerging industry. The event was an activity under the Nordic Marine Innovation Programme 2.0 that began in 2015.
