Innovation Components Connect Here
This page is where you can find out all about the finfish aquaculture technology trading post. This is the place where we will assist you to prepare descriptions of technologies or capabilities that could make a contribution to filling the global fish supply gap.
Open Innovation will play a major role in drawing together the insights to deliver productivity transforming innovations. We have shown you over ten great places where you can hunt for links to innovation components. Now we would like to offer you the ability to promote capabilities, research results, technologies available for licensing, patents, joint venture opportunities to our audience - aquaculture innovators world wide. This focussed community of interest is intent upon overcoming the global fish supply gap through aquaculture.
This is great news for the innovator. Fortune favours the prepared mind. The community of interest participating in this site is actively seeking solutions to aquaculture problems and determined to create some truly productivity transforming innovations. If you promote your Innovation Component here then you maximise the likelihood that you will connect with a skilled and determined aquaculture innovator.
…and yes its FREE!!
Many brokers seeking to connect people with solutions to people with needs take a fee. What we are attempting to do through the finfish project is to build capabilities and teams to create world changing aquaculture production.
So, what are we interested in? Successful aquaculture innovation. We are looking for “innovation components” that can make contributions towards achieving our aim of filling the global fish supply gap. Innovation components are things that can assist to get project work done. Although patents and technologies available for licensing will likely be contributed in the largest numbers, we are also very interested in finding out about important research and consulting capabilities.
To give you some ideas on the innovation components that we are seeking, each capability or technology will be classified against one or more elements of the Aquaculture Innovation Value System. If you click on the image below you will get a larger version.
So, what we are looking for are innovation components that can make a contribution to aquaculture innovation in logistics, marketing, in siting and overcoming environmental issues and in promoting the aesthetic qualities of the product etc etc A more detailed description of the eleven components that make up Aquaculture Innovation Value System is available here.
We are expecting innovation components to be notified by all of the following sources: commercial organisations, public sector research institutions, venture capital managers and individual inventors. While we are expecting a good following from people with a direct connection to the aquaculture and fishing sectors we fully expect that some of the innovation components that prove most valuable will be derived from sectors well outside fishing and aquaculture.
To assist you to provide information that will interest the readers of finfish.org we have developed a template document that you can download and then edit to include your own information. Part of the secret of promoting your capabilities or technology successfully is to prepare a thorough and clear explanation. To help you visualise what an effective summary of an innovation component looks like we have an example available for download here: Water Purification Capability.
To submit information about an innovation component please describe and then submit your innovation component using the ‘Register’ or ‘Login’ links in the sidebar and our proforma Innovation Component Template
ETCorp have added information their aquaculture automation capability. Please click here to view a data sheet containing information about their system.
