Irida at Aquaculture Europe 2026 in Ljubljana
September 28 – October 1, 2026, | Ljubljana, Slovenia
Irida is pleased to announce its participation in Aquaculture Europe 2026, taking place from September 28 to October 1, 2026, in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
The event will bring together leading professionals, researchers, academics, and stakeholders from across the aquaculture sector, providing an important platform for knowledge exchange, scientific discussion, and collaboration.
Irida will be exhibiting at Booth #14–15–16, where visitors will have the opportunity to learn more about our approach to aquafeed development, fish nutrition, and fish health.
Advancing Aquaculture Through Nutrition and Innovation
At Irida, we believe that sustainable aquaculture depends on the continuous integration of quality, scientific knowledge, innovation, and responsible use of resources.
Our aquafeed solutions are developed to meet the specific nutritional requirements of farmed fish, supporting health, growth, performance, and long-term production efficiency.
Through carefully selected raw materials, advanced formulation expertise, continuous research and development, and close collaboration with our customers and partners, Irida continues to develop solutions that respond to the evolving needs of Mediterranean aquaculture.
Aquaculture Europe 2026 will provide an opportunity for our team to present our latest developments and exchange perspectives with industry professionals on the future of aquaculture nutrition.
Advancing Fish Health with Aquatic Biologicals
Irida will also be joined at the exhibition by its affiliate, Aquatic Biologicals, reflecting our broader commitment to integrated solutions for fish health and disease management.
Aquatic Biologicals will present its expertise and ongoing developments in several areas, including:
- Autogenous vaccines, supporting targeted approaches to disease prevention
- The new GMP-certified production facility, the first of its kind in Greece
- The potential of phage therapy as an innovative approach to disease management and reducing the use of antibiotics
The development of innovative fish health solutions is an increasingly important component of sustainable aquaculture. By combining nutritional strategies with advances in disease prevention and management, the sector can continue to improve animal health while supporting more responsible and resilient production systems.
Scientific Contribution to Aquaculture Europe 2026
In addition to its presence at the exhibition, Irida will contribute to the scientific programme of Aquaculture Europe 2026 within the Health Management – Treatment & Monitoring session on Wednesday, September 30.
Two scientific presentations will highlight research related to important bacterial pathogens affecting European seabass:
First Detection of Streptococcus iniae Associated with Disease in Farmed European Seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) in East Greece
This presentation reports the first detection of Streptococcus iniae associated with disease in farmed European seabass in East Greece, contributing to the understanding and monitoring of emerging health challenges affecting Mediterranean aquaculture.
Comparative Spatial Transcriptomics of Aeromonas veronii Infection in European Seabass Spleen
The second presentation focuses on the application of comparative spatial transcriptomics to investigate Aeromonas veronii infection in European seabass spleen, providing insights into host responses and the biological mechanisms associated with infection.
These scientific contributions reflect Irida’s commitment to research, innovation, and evidence-based approaches to addressing the challenges facing modern aquaculture.
Our participation reflects Irida’s ongoing commitment to contributing to the development of a more innovative, sustainable, and scientifically driven aquaculture sector.
We look forward to welcoming visitors and engaging in meaningful discussions on nutrition, fish health, research, and the future of aquaculture.
See you in Ljubljana!
