Sign up for the 2nd Aquaculture Innovation Challenge Indonesia

The second Aquaculture Innovation Challenge open to students and researchers, start-ups and small and medium-sized enterprises with innovations that result in creating a more sustainable shrimp sector in Indonesia.
January 15, 2019

The AIC mission is to find bright minds, with great ideas for creating positive environmental and social impact on the aquaculture industry, and help them achieve their ambitions. AIC connects its finalists to knowledge, networks, finance and capital and exposes them to the critical (and helpful) eye of a multi-disciplinary team of industry professionals. This team, made up of Indonesian and foreign individuals from financial institutions, shrimp related businesses, knowledge partners, government institutions and NGO’s, will oversee the process and act as proposal judges and boot camp coaches.

AIC Indonesia will focus on shrimp in Vietnam. Participants can submit proposals at three different levels:

  • Design (Early Stage): Innovation is in the idea stage and partially developed but not yet fully conceptualized
  • Demonstration (Middle Stage): Innovation is fully conceptualized, and all components of a business plan have already or partially been developed.
  • Upscaling (Late Stage): Innovation has demonstrated to be technically and financially feasible and has a positive social and environmental impact record.

All applications must be aimed towards creating a more sustainable shrimp industry in Indonesia.
