One year to go until AquaNext - everything is on track!
“Our ambition is for AquaNext to establish itself as the premier aquaculture event in Norway,” says CEO Sigurd Vik. The event will take place on 22–23 September 2026. “We have the country’s best infrastructure for exhibitions, hotels, and conferences. For example, it only takes 15 minutes from the airport to the city center.
“In the exhibition area, we’re doing something completely new: the main conference hall will be built as an integrated part of the exhibition. This creates a unique networking space for both exhibitors and visitors. Both in the conferences and the exhibition, we will highlight the entire value chain, with the main themes of fish welfare, technology, and governance.
Planning of the conference program is already underway. An Advisory Board (see separate article) has been appointed to help shape the key directions. As in previous years, the program will be wide-ranging, covering topics such as fish health, digitalization, land-based farming, deep-farming and governance.
Finally, on Tuesday, 22 September 2026, there will be a celebration! We are inviting everyone to a big party at a great concert venue in the city center – a highlight not to be missed, promises an enthusiastic Sigurd Vik.
