Service Category:

Biotechnology

Last week, a meeting was held in Copenhagen on the possibility of using seaweed and kelp in food, within the New Nordic Food project. Food algae is an underutilized resource in the Arctic and great potential for the development of new foods from seaweed and kelp.

Participants included chefs, scientists, seaweed growers and producers from Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Greenland, Denmark, Norway and Sweden. Further information about the meeting can be found on the Ny Nordisk Mad website (see here).
