Fisheries Economist and Professor, Department of Industrial Economics University of Stavanger, Norway Come to ISER and hear Frank Asche, a well-known fisheries economist from Norway, talk about how he sees the global seafood markets of the future.

World seafood markets are in rapid transition, as knowledge from agriculture is used to enhance the competitiveness of aquaculture products throughout the supply chain. These changes, led by farmed salmon, are likely to influence all parts of the seafood market, creating opportunities and challenges for coastal communitiesas well as the worlds fishing industries.
