BioMar are proud members of GSA not only because we support their great work in driving a more responsible seafood industry but because our people highly value the science-based resources they provide to members.

Listening to the speakers talk at the GOAL conference about all aspects of the whole industry made me realize it is so important to become part of this organization to reach people, to learn from others, and to help to ensure a more sustainable and responsible seafood supply chain. I want to encourage young students, particularly girls, to take the challenge of unknown worlds.

Makiko Karasawa, HK Sustainable Seafood Coalition | Hong Kong

I joined GSA because I wanted to be an active contributor to helping vital protein sources (fisheries) around the world. I'm from Washington on the west coast and my family is Norwegian so seafood has been a part of my life both in consumption and in the natural beauty of the area that I live in.

Corey Haugen, Hawthorne Advertising | USA

The resources GSA provides have been a tremendous help, not only for finding out what is happening in the industry, but also to get to know the trailblazers. I find that the experts are not only very generous but very supportive as well. I have virtually met with other GSA members, consider them to be some of the best mentors in the aquaculture industry.
