18 International Start-ups Shaking Up the Blue Value Chain
The Blue Food Innovation Summit in London will showcase the most exciting innovations emerging from across the world, hand-picked for their scalable solutions.
From breakthroughs in fish health and feed innovation to game-changing ocean data solutions, summit delegates will discover the technologies transforming the sector's efficiency and sustainability, meeting face-to-face the brains behind the ideas face-to-face.
Five seed-stage entrepreneurs will pitch their solutions on stage in the Start-Up Showcase:
- Banyu (Indonesia) grows high-quality seaweed seedlings using regenerative farming to boost yields, restore oceans, and support coastal communities.
- Blue Food Performance (UK) • provides independent, transparent, and scientifically verified blue food sustainability assessments to ensure scientific integrity and commercial relevance.
- Flomo (New Zealand) has developed a fishing gear technology designed to enhance animal welfare, protect ecosystems, and improve catch quality.
- Part of the Yield Lab cohort, Flonergia Systems (Canada) has developed energy-efficient and cost-efficient pump systems providing an alternative to existing centrifugal pumping and aeration systems.
- Ocean Twist Biotechology (Italy) enhances fish welfare and aquaculture productivity with their circular high-performance protein feed ingredients.
After pitching, the start-ups will field questions by industry specialists keen to take a deeper dive into their offering, including Mercedes Groba, Senior Innovation Programme Manager, EIT FOOD and Karina Wessel, ESG & Impact Manager, BLUEFRONT EQUITY.
More entrepreneurs feature at the summit exhibition, showcasing their solutions in the dedicated start-up booths:
- Aquanzo (UK) are pioneering a circular and scalable approach to transform the 4 trillion litres agricultural liquid co-product wasted into a new source of natural marine ingredients using artemia (seamonkey).
- Aquafood (Sweden) offers a process for taking care of any filleting side stream from any species and turning it into high-quality, high-value ingredients for human consumption.
- Big Akwa (Sweden) develops circular aquaculture projects by introducing industrial symbiosis between land-based fish farms and process industries.
- BiOceanOr (France) provides AI and BIOLOGY-powered water quality solutions, enabling predictive analytics to ensure environmental protection, optimise aquaculture operations, and enhance fish health.
- CatchCam Technologies (UK) engineers durable camera systems and advanced sensors for reliable data collection in harsh underwater environments.
- FP Aquaculture and Ocean Health (Denmark) offers a machine learning-powered microscope technology that detects harmful plankton and micro jellyfish, providing early warnings and enabling timely preventive actions.
- Mariculture Systems (Israel) has developed an innovative offshore fish farming platform designed to withstand extreme maritime conditions, including waves up to 17 meters high.
- Mercia Nanosolutions (UK) is a manufacturer of nanobubble generators. Their product is capable of aeration and oxygenation in aquaculture applications.
- Nobify (Israel) efficiently deters migratory birds from large aquatic areas, boosting aquaculture Yields by 25 percent and strengthening global food and water security.
Working with our innovation partner, The Yield Lab Asia-Pacific, the summit also brings forth the most industrious start-ups making a splash in the aquaculture and seafood industries:
- Protenga (Singapore) has developed data-driven Insect Technology that enables a circular, regenerative food supply chain and produces best-in-class, sustainable insect products for aquafeed, animal feed and plants.
- Seadling (Singapore) is pioneering a biotech platform for cultivating tropical seaweeds and transforming them into B2B functional ingredients for animals, plants, and humans.
- Sea Green (Singapore) enables faster decision-making, proactive risk management, and measurable sustainability gains through its data platform, which leverages geospatial insights.
- Wittaya Aqua (Canada) is a technology platform for aquaculture producers, feed mills, and ingredient suppliers that consolidates existing data points across the seafood supply chain to drive efficiency, profitability, and sustainability.
Renowned throughout the blue food sector as a focal point for international innovation, the Blue Food Innovation Summit in London has showcased multiple start-ups from across the globe, attracting many more as delegates.
Their fresh solutions and talent are in hot demand for the senior strategic innovation leaders and decision-makers from aquaculture producers, food brands, feed providers, governments and investors who will also be in attendance.
Detailed start-up profiles are available here, including each company’s technology, solution category, and funding rounds achieved to date.
