We’re excited to extend the deadline to submit bids to host the 2028 and 2031 International Seaweed Symposiums (ISS), a cornerstone event for seaweed science and industry since 1952, to February 3, 2025.

This extension offers prospective hosts more time to submit bids that will highlight their region’s commitment to advancing seaweed innovation. Hosting ISS provides a unique opportunity to:

• Establish your region as a global hub for seaweed research and development
• Attract leading scientists, businesses, and innovators
• Shape the future of the seaweed industry
