ADDRESSING THE GAPS, DELIVERING THE SOLUTIONS

The significant opportunity for growth in this sector is hindered by a lack of insight-led decision making, financing and community involvement, which is where AquaVida specialises.

We draw on a powerful mix of capabilities and a highly experienced team dedicated to aquaculture innovation combined with social science and above all, the intimate community relationships needed for impact mobilisation.
