The global seafood industry is worth more than $450 billion — but who really controls it, and where is it headed next?

In this data-driven deep dive, we profile 50 of the world’s leading seafood companies to reveal the competitive forces shaping the future of aquaculture and marine protein. From Norwegian salmon giants employing 11,000+ people to Silicon Valley labs growing fish without the ocean, discover the spectrum of players fighting for your seafood dollar.

You’ll learn why 18% of market leaders are betting big on alternative seafood technologies, how traditional aquaculture firms are leveraging scale to dominate markets, and the emerging innovations that could rewrite the industry playbook.

Key Intelligence You’ll Gain:

  • Strategic Openings: Where investors, entrepreneurs, and established operators can position for the next growth wave.

Whether you’re an aquaculture executive, agtech investor, or a strategic player in the global food market, this episode delivers actionable market intelligence you won’t hear anywhere else.
