Future of Fisheries: Innovating for the Future

The Future of Fisheries Series presented by

The fisheries industry—like many industries in Canada—is facing unexpected challenges as COVID-19 continues to impact Canada’s supply chains, processing plants, global markets and consumer behaviours. But with these challenges, there are also great opportunities for innovation.

With this in mind, the Fisheries Council of Canada has chosen “Innovating for the Future” as its topic for this year’s conference, which will be hosted entirely online through a webinar series. It will feature video interviews, a live presentation and Q&A, keynotes and panels.

The series will touch on how the fisheries industry has adapted to new methods for sustainable fisheries management; biodiversity in Canada’s natural ecosystems; new challenges related to climate change; and how superclusters are transforming how Canadian industries innovate, among other topics.
