Evaluate Deckhand Investment Readiness and Develop a best-practice Global Commercialisation Road Map for Execution with Potential Investors
Opportunity is knocking! The global fishing industry predominately uses paper to record mandatory and other data about fishing. An estimated 80% of fishing vessels are small (12m) and are not suited for adopting desktop technology for data management. Fisheries management and research agencies globally are attempting to move to digital reporting of mandatory information.
Real Time Data Pty has developed a tablet based platform which addresses these industry problems with global export potential. To scale globally RTD needs an investment partner to fund substantial development resources but RTD does not have the expertise to assess its investment readiness and prepare documentation for potential investors to make investment decisions.
If this fishing industry tech export opportunity is to be captured, RTD needs guidance from a qualified investment organisation. AgThentic has been identified as a suitable qualified organisation with resource sector IT capital raising experience.

FRDC Sponsorship International Symposium for Genetics in Aquaculture XIII
The International Symposium for Genetics in Aquaculture (ISGA) is a triennial premier aquaculture event that brings together globally leading researchers, industry, and students who are interested in the application of genetics to the improvement of aquaculture production and sustainability. The conference is held on a different continent every 3 years and in 2018 the event will be held in Cairns, Queensland 15-20th July. The event usually attracts between 200-300 delegates. In 2018, the focal theme of the conference will be around industry implementation and practice of genetics into industrial aquaculture. As chair of ISGAXIII I am seeking sponsorship from FRDC to help support holding this premier event in Australia (only the second time it has been held here). Sponsorship will be used to support travel costs for an internationally renowned plenary speaker in the application of biotechnology and synthetic biological solutions to future aquaculture production (i.e CRISPR/TALEN gene editing, RNAi etc), to provide bursaries for participants from Australian industry/researchers to attend the conference and to cover costs associated with an industry tour to showcase to delegates examples of Australian tropical aquaculture. Sponsorship will be acknowledged through the display of FRDC's logo on relevant conference promotional material, in thanking of all sponsors, and at the start of the plenary speakers talk. There will also be provision for material to be in handouts for conference delegates. information on the conference can be found at the website https://www.jcu.edu.au/international-symposium-of-genetics-in-aquaculture
