From Niche to Noticed
Building the Value Chain for the Seaweed Economy in Aotearoa New Zealand
The Rutherford, Nelson
27 Nile Street, Nelson 7010
Welcome to the 2025 ANZSA Seaweed Summit, where we gather to explore how Aotearoa’s seaweed sector can move from niche to noticed—building a resilient, high-value chain that benefits people, planet, and economy.
This year’s theme is about more than growth; it’s about differentiation in a competitive world, thriving through collaboration, and driving innovation while adapting to challenges in order to survive and succeed. Together, we’ll chart a course for a thriving seaweed economy that’s recognised, respected, and ready for the future.

Without the practical help of Aquaculture New Zealand (AQNZ) on the ground in Nelson delivering the Seaweed Summit would be extremely challenging for our Board.
We'd like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Karen Morley and the AQNZ team for their ongoing support.
