The event programme, already available for download, includes three modules that will address the link between science, technology, State and industry, as well as the productive challenges and business opportunities.
Just days before its implementation, the International Seminar "Creating A Third Industry" - organized by the Technological Program for the Local Production of Nutritional Inputs for Aquaculture (PTEC-INVA)— has its last slots available.
The event will take place on Wednesday 29 October, among the 08:30 and 14:30 hoursat the Regional Research CentreINIA Carillancawhich is located at kilometer 10 of the Cajon–Vilcún road, in the region of La Araucanía (click here to see the exact location in Google Maps).

Virtuous Alliance
The meeting will bring together representatives of the different productive sectors that make up the agro-acuculture ecosystem, with the purpose of opening a space for analysis and conversation on how the agriculture and aquaculture are strategically linking to project what the PTEC-INVA has called a “third industry” combining the potential of both sectors.
According to the manager of PTEC-INVA, Dr Daniel Nieto Díaz-Muñoz“This seminar seeks to strengthen the ties between the state, private and science, generating a conversation that allows progress towards a more efficient, sustainable and high added value agro-acuculture production. The third industry we are promoting is, in essence, a virtuous alliance between land and sea.”

The seminar has the collaboration of the Technological Institute of the Salmon (Intesal), the Chilean Salmon Industry Association A.G. (SalmonChile) and the companies BioMar, Nuseed and Alliance Team, reaffirming the productive sector's commitment to sustainable innovation.
