With €12 million in funding, partners in the EU-project AlgaeProBANOS gathered to create products based on seaweed and algae. The Mayor of Tromsø, Gunnar Wilhelmsen, opened the meeting.
Researchers and start-up companies will develop a series of seaweed- and algae-based products: dietary supplements for Alzheimer’s disease, plate fertilisers, printed materials, seaweed soup, seaweed bread, and notably seaweed fishcakes.
The Mayor of Tromsø, Gunnar Wilhelmsen, had the opportunity to taste the fishcakes during the meeting.
