10/08/2015: Mini-Seminar on Norwegian aquaculture fully booked – will be available as webcast

--> The mini-seminar on “Is Norwegian aquaculture technology relevant to other climates and other species?” has turned out to be extremely popular and the seminar is now fully booked.

In fact, there have been such great interest that the organisers have decided to make it available as a webcast after the event. 

According to the Director of Communications at Aqua Nor, Erik Hempel, almost 150 persons have signed up for the seminar, but the conference room only takes 80 persons. 

“Thus, it was necessary to find a solution whereby we could make this available to many more people,” says Hempel. The web cast will remain on the web site  for 12 months after the exhibition.

The programme for the seminar is as follows:
