Testimonials

Participating in an international exhibition like Conxemar 2023 has a great relevance in terms of promotion of Italian fisheries production. The presence for the first time of 26 companies from the fishing and aquaculture sector in the Italian stand is certainly important both in terms of the exchange of knowledge and good practices but also with a view to possible commercial agreements between companies as well as for the promotion or enhancement of Italian processing companies and their products, their technologies and business methodologies.
Eleonora Iacovoni, (Italy)
Guinea-Bissau’s expectations for this 24th edition of Conxemar are to bring partners to meet our fisheries (INIPO) and marine protected areas and Biodiversity (IBAP) institutions, responsible for the preservation and sustainability of our fisheries resources and proactively share with fishing companies present at CONXEMAR investment opportunities in Guinea- Bissau. We also set out to enhance the exchange of experiences and reinforce Article 10 of the Protocol to the Fisheries Agreement between Guinea-Bissau and the European Union, in promoting the economic integration of European Union operators in the fisheries sector in Guinea- Bissau as a whole.
