We are thrilled to announce the outstanding results of the 8th edition of AquaFarm, co-located with NovelFarm and AlgaeFarm. The official data confirms a 30% growth compared to last year, with a total of 2400 visits.
A quarter of the visitors came from abroad, with a strong presence from Croatia, from which 16.6% of potential buyers arrived, confirming AquaFarm’s role as a landmark for the Balkan region. Also noteworthy was the delegation from Brazil, organized in collaboration with the ICE Agency.
On the exhibitor front, one-third of the 110 total exhibitors, including direct exhibitors, co-exhibitors, and represented brands, came from abroad, with France leading as the country of origin, followed by the United States, Spain, Norway, and Denmark.
The success of the 2025 edition was also driven by the rich conference program, with 21 sessions and over 150 speakers, covering all key sectors: aquaculture, vertical farming, and algae farming.
The AquaFarm conferences demonstrated a great interest in sustainability, energy self-sufficiency, and decarbonization of the sector, in addition to sessions on value-added products and European innovations (EU-FEAMPA).
AquaFarm, NovelFarm, and AlgaeFarm have confirmed themselves as unmissable events, thanks to a format that combines exhibition, professional updates, and business opportunities.
Presentations and proceedings from the conference sessions will be available soon on website.
We are already working on the 9th edition: we look forward to seeing you on February 18-19, 2026 once again at Pordenone Exhibition Centre.
