Scottish Ocean Cluster: Stakeholder Engagement Workshops - Oban

Scottish Ocean Cluster workshops aim to unite industry in sharing challenges, value creation, and drive innovation.

The Scottish Ocean Cluster was established to drive innovation and sustainability across Scotland’s marine sector, helping to make the most of what’s caught, landed, farmed, and processed in Scotland.

We’re hosting a program of collaborative workshop for key stakeholders, including:

· Fishing fleets and fish processors aiming to maximise the commercial value of their catch and by-products.

· Aquaculture businesses exploring ways to create more value from side streams and by-products.

· Biotechnology companies, entrepreneurs, and investors interested in turning seafood, aquaculture, fisheries, and shellfish by-products into high-value commercial products.

· Academic and research institutes focused on valorising marine by-products and advancing solutions for a sustainable blue economy.

This is your chance to:

· Share the challenges you face and the support you need to make this commercially viable.

· Highlight your ambitions and opportunities for Scotland in this rapidly evolving space.

· Help shape the Cluster’s priorities to ensure we deliver real benefits, create new revenue streams, and foster economic, environmental and social sustainability.

Your insights will directly influence the Cluster’s focus, ensuring it tackles the issues that matter most to your business or research. Promoting the use of innovation to unlock sustainability, and economic growth for Scotland’s marine economy.
