A diverse seaweed industry is evolving within Australia with ongoing research into a number of novel value add opportunities such as clothing dyes, feed additives, and bio-medical uses. Many aquaculture producers are expanding their existing leases to include seaweed production. The needs of the emerging seaweed industry are likely quite different to those of more established aquaculture industries.

Key players both domestically and internationally will be in attendance at this conference so it is an excellent opportunity to better understand the needs of the sector and assisting the industry to develop and prosper.
