"In order to have discussions over disagreements, you have to have both parties appear. What is striking about the Seafood Summit is how the industry side has become increasingly engaged year by year." - John Sackton, Seafoodnews.com
"I’m just done with the most intense 4 days of my year. Seafood Summit 2009 in San Diego, where I meet with fish and seafood people nonstop from waking at 7 until collapsing in bed at midnight (or later)." - Mark Powell, VP, Fish Conservation, The Ocean Conservancy
"I got a lot out of the Summit...sessions were informative and well presented with very few exceptions. The whole purpose of the summit is to find common ground and I think it does that very well. There will always be disagreement in the detail and pace but the broad objectives and priorities are in common and some of the innovative solutions are great." - Nigel Edwards, Technical Director, Seachill
"Interesting discussions explored the sustainability of open ocean aquaculture, fisheries management, international trade and catch shares." - WiLDCOAST representative
"It was truly an honor to be a part of the event ... I adore being part of such a monumental movement. I have learned a lot in the past six years about the industry, but my largest bolts forward have come from my Summit experiences. I hope to attend many more." - Lisa Eason, Sunburst Trout
"The breadth of attendees and panelists was very impressive, and the conference sessions were informative and thought provoking. Being a marketing person, I particularly enjoyed the many networking opportunities..."
- Carol Devine, VP, Marketing & Strategic Development, Australis Aquaculture
