Our aim is to give you enough insight to convince you that sustainable aquaculture should become an even bigger part of the solution to the protein challenge that we’re confronted with, and impel you to support and engage in efforts to ensure sustainable aquaculture’s success. We believe that reliably meeting the world’s growing demand for protein while simultaneously sustaining our environment will require a radical transformation of global aquaculture, which needs to be a large-scale collaborative effort between diverse stakeholders and investors committed to supporting innovation and long-term growth. With the Aqua Insights Report Series, we wish to ignite discussions and create this momentum. We hope that after reading these reports you’re—even more—excited about joining us in our bid to invest in the future of sustainable aquaculture. This first report <https://aqua-spark.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d5eb256f9a9def92894b295b9&id=f3d90ab483&e=4a4a245921>addresses why and how farmed tilapia can and should play an important role in solving sub-Saharan Africa’s challenge to produce sufficient food for its growing population. We provide you with an overview of the current geography of tilapia production, the producers involved, and the various segments of the supply chain (including feed and feed ingredients, genetics and hatcheries, health, aquatech, and marketing and distribution), as well as insights into the challenges that the sector is confronted with, and an overview of the investment opportunities and the existing investment landscape. After reading this report, you’ll have a good overview of the status of the sector and understand what’s needed to take tilapia in sub-Saharan Africa to the next level. This report <https://aqua-spark.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d5eb256f9a9def92894b295b9&id=b4ee94d126&e=4a4a245921>wouldn’t have been possible without the support of all the people that have contributed to its content. First of all, a big thank you to all the people at the companies and organizations involved in tilapia in sub-Saharan Africa who’ve been willing to share their insights with us: your views have been of tremendous value for developing this report and will enlighten others as much as they did us. Also, the support of William Leschen—who manages the Sarnissa network and knows tilapia in sub-Saharan Africa better than anyone else, and who has reviewed almost every section of this report—has been invaluable in capturing the whole story that needs to be told. Lastly, to the whole team at Aqua-Spark; Annette Farshchi, Josanne Blokker, and Jo Hamilton-Bilijam at Editors Collective Amsterdam who edited the report; and Marnix de Klerk and Nina Mathijsen at Detour who took care of designing and illustrating the report: a big thank you for all your energy and hard work..
