The Future of Aquaculture
Bodø, May 19–23, 2025
Over the past years, Blå Uke (Blue Week) has established itself as one of Northern Norway's most important arenas for professionals working in and around the marine industries.
Blå Uke brings together leaders, experts, investors, and decision-makers in Bodø during Week 21 for a comprehensive, multi-day program. The goal is to provide updated insights and inspiration on resource management, technology, innovation, sustainability, and the industry's most pressing challenges.
The Future of Aquaculture
The aquaculture industry plays a pivotal role as a driver of economic growth and employment in Nordland. This year's theme highlights the industry's unique position and future opportunities.
With its significant contribution to Nordland's value creation, the aquaculture sector holds the potential to address the challenges and opportunities of the future. It generates critical ripple effects, not only for the supplier industry but also for technology development, exports, and consumer markets.
But what lies ahead? How will the regulatory framework for the industry be shaped following the Norwegian parliamentary elections in 2025? Where can we find opportunities for further growth? And what groundbreaking innovations are currently under development?
During Blå Uke 2025, we will bring together leaders, experts, and stakeholders from across the value chain to discuss these very questions. Together, we will shed light on the future of an industry that shapes not only this region but all of Norway.
Bodø, with its rich history as a hub for fisheries and coastal culture, serves as the natural meeting place for such a festival. The city boasts a wide range of companies tied to the marine industries, alongside research institutions and educational programs, making Bodø a central player in the development of the ocean industries of the future.
