B2E CoLAB’s presence at this prestigious event reflects its commitment to promoting sustainable practices and scientific innovations in the fishing, aquaculture, and processing value chain. Rita Ribeiro will bring to the debate the topic of full use of fish, a concept that is increasingly relevant to marine sustainability. This approach not only aims to reduce waste, but also to create value from by-products that are usually discarded.

The valorization of by-products such as oils, proteins, and bioactive compounds is a strategy that combines sustainability and innovation, contributing to multiple industries, from food to cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. This approach demonstrates how the application of science and technology can transform waste into valuable resources, promoting a more circular and efficient economic model.

In the context of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021-2030), this event plays a crucial role in addressing the challenge of making oceans more productive and sustainable. The “Fish Industry” session, which will feature Rita Ribeiro, will be an opportunity to discuss concrete solutions and share experiences that could shape the future of the blue food sector.

With a track record of collaboration on strategic projects in the blue bioeconomy, B2E CoLAB reaffirms its commitment to actively contributing to the sustainable transformation of the sector. Participation in this event not only reinforces its position as a leading entity, but also reflects its ongoing commitment to innovating and collaborating with stakeholders to develop a more productive and resilient ocean.
