Meginmál
TAFT ráðstefnur (Trans Atlantic Fisheries Technology Conference) er vettvangur þar sem margir af fremstu vísindamönnum Evrópu, Bandaríkjanna og Kanada á sviði rannsókna á sjávarfangi og nýtingu þess koma saman og bera saman bækur sínar. Þessi ráðstefna var þriðja TAFT ráðstefnan. Að ráðstefnunum standa WEFTA (West European Fish Technologists Association), sem eru samtök vísindamanna á sviði fiskiðnaðarrannsókna í V-Evrópu og AFTC (Atlantic Fisheries Technologists Conference), sem eru sambærileg samtök vísindamanna á austurströnd N-Ameríku og Kanada.
