What others are saying about the Seafood Summit:"I always learn more about how to get all the players together looking for the same goal. Of course, sometimes there are conflicts between them, but at the end we are all looking for the same: that’s sustainability, that’s a win-win game. At this event I am always learning more to do my job better." "
The 2008 seafood summit was a thoroughly enjoyable and useful experience for me, offering a rich insight into the complex problem of seafood sustainability and providing excellent networking opportunities." "The Seafood Summit plays a central role in connecting the business and the conservation communities, fostering constructive dialogue and forging new opportunities. This is a 'can't miss' meeting." "I have felt challenged by the enormity of the problems that the seafood industry could be facing in the future but encouraged tremendously by the positive and enthusiastic approach that we have working together to solve those problems. I will go away with a bit more enthusiasm and I will certainly go away with better contacts and more focused thinking on how we will actually address the issues to make a change." "I have been going to conferences and meetings for most of my 26-year career in the aquaculture industry and would like to share, that I thought this last Summit (my first) was one of the top in my experience. Not only was the organization and quality of the presentations top notch, but Seafood Choices Alliance structured it so to maximize networking opportunities and ability to socially share with colleagues and counter-parts."
