Annual Conference 2024 21–23 October - Lisbon, Portugal

Programme

To check which sessions you can attend, please see the attendee categories list on the righthand side and click on your category to filter the sessions and social functions. 

To provide more flexibility and networking opportunities, while maintaining insightful sessions featuring close to 30 speakers, we have amended the Annual Conference's programme: it will now have three condensed half day sessions, with a range of side events held in the afternoons, to provide more choice to our attendees. 

The optional side events complement the programme, focusing on market access through certification with MarinTrust, the emerging EU regulations on mineral oil hydrocarbons in EPA and DHA omega-3 oils with GOED, and how fisheries management can contribute to improved food security with the Global Roundtable on Marine Ingredients.
