These panels will answer questions such as: What are the best long term positions in the farmed and wild sectors; what are the best success stories in wild-fish investments; is there a future IPO market for fisheries companies; what return on investment can aquaculture investors expect; and what are hedges against the risk of aquaculture disease and disaster?
