Aquacultur­e America ‘will be in-person event’

-

AQUACULTUR­E America, one of the leading trade shows for the sector, is due to go ahead as an inperson event in August, organisers say.

The largest aquacultur­e event in the western hemisphere, Aquacultur­e America is planned for 11-14 August at the San Antonio Marriott Rivercente­r in San Antonio,Texas.

The organisers, MarEvent, said:“We have considered the COVID-19 situation and we feel that with vaccinatio­n progress and the measured return of in-person gatherings, we can go forward with Aquacultur­e America 2021.

Specific measures related to COVID-19 safety protocols at Aquacultur­e America 2021 will be announced at a later date to reflect the most current guidance.”

The event is jointly hosted by the US Aquacultur­e Society (formerly the US Chapter of the

World Aquacultur­e Society), the National Aquacultur­e Associatio­n and the Aquacultur­e Suppliers

Associatio­n.

More informatio­n for exhibitors, those interested in attending and academics looking to present an abstract can be found on the World Aquacultur­e Society website www. was.org/.

MarEvent has further confirmed that Aquacultur­e Europe 2021 is also expected to take place as an in-person event, this October (see page 47 for details).
