The Aquaculture Congress, organized by AMBIO with the support of the Hellenic Aquaculture Producers Organization (HAPO), has been a biennial vital meeting point for the industry since its inception in 2018. It brings together producers, investors, researchers, and policymakers to exchange knowledge and shape the sector’s future. Each edition has successfully strengthened international partnerships, driving momentum toward sustainable growth and technological innovation. The Aquaculture Congress 2026 will address the key challenges and opportunities in aquaculture, highlighting the latest trends, innovations, and policy developments shaping its future in Greece and internationally. As part of the event, targeted B2B meetings will be organized among aquaculture enterprises, providing a platform for networking and potential partnerships in Greece and beyond.

Venue: 
Megaron Athens International Conference Centre, Athens, Greece

Focus:
Sustainable aquaculture, fish health, nutrition, feed innovation, regulation and market outlook in the Mediterranean and global sector

Food systems, including aquaculture, are being challenged by changes resulting from global warming. These affect all forms of aquaculture, in inland and coastal marine regions, and especially small and medium sized operators that may not have the financial and operational capacity to implement adaptation and mitigation measures.

Seasonal “extremes” in water temperature, availability and oxygen content and (for coastal areas) salinity, pH, sea level will have varying effects on aquaculture production that may require the diversification of cultured species.

Diseases, parasites, predators, non-indigenous species and algal or jellyfish blooms can also decrease production and challenge aquatic animal welfare. These effects may require the relocation of sites or the allocation of new sites for production. However, these changes may also provide opportunities to diversify to new species production or the combined production of species that can better mitigate effects. Opportunities also lie in the development of a clear and transparent credit system for the carbon sequestration and other ecosystem services that aquatic animal groups, whether in freshwater or coastal habitats, provide.

Taking place in the beautiful Slovenian capital of Ljubljana, AE2026 will put the focus on adaptation to climate effects, the latest research on species adaption capacity and the health/welfare/nutrition/breeding factors that underline this. While Slovenia has a low aquaculture production, it has plans for development of existing and new production methods and species and it is at the heart of central/southern Europe - adjacent to Italy, Croatia, Hungary and Austria – and hence providing a regional focus for both inland and marine aquaculture.
