The first step
-
Hello everyone, I'm Sara - a German medical laboratory assistant with a passion for RAS aquaculture. I am looking for a hatchery in southern Europe to have my first aquaculture experience. Anyone know a good place or startup?
Main areas of interest are algae cultivation, mussel farming, shellfish production, fish farming, hatchery management, recirculating aquaculture systems and vertical farming technology.
My skills are in microbiology and basic laboratory work. Actually, I am actively looking for an opportunity to gain skills and knowledge in a professional aquaculture environment. I already have an idea of what I would like to implement in the future. However, without the necessary skills and experience, I cannot start this project. Now I'm looking for a way to both inform and educate myself. Therefore I am looking for an opportunity to learn the basics elsewhere in Europe for two to three years to enable me to become a professional in RAS aquaculture. Thanks in advance to anyone who can give me any further information that might help me to move forward with my future plans.

@saraann_stewart64 Hello! Unfortunately I'm not too familiar with the European landscape, but in terms of seaweed there's Seaweed For Europe which has some good information around farming in Europe and may have something about hatcheries as well. You could also look at their members page to explore other companies further. If you are looking to target other seaweed companies, you should also look at the phyconomy database. Hope those can help!
