FishEUTrust Showcased at High-Level EU R&I Conference in Brussels / 7.07.2025

On 23–24 June 2025, the FishEUTrust project coordinated by prof. dr. Nives Ogrinc participated in the "R&I for a Competitive Green Transition" conference in Brussels, a key satellite event of the European Research and Innovation Days.

This high-level gathering brought together leading policymakers, researchers, and innovators to explore how science can power Europe’s green and blue transitions. Out of more than 150 projects, FishEUTrust was honoured to be one of just 15 selected to exhibit at the event. The project also caught the attention of European Commissioner Ekaterina Zaharieva, who learned about our cutting-edge tools to foster transparency and trust in sustainable seafood. The team showcased two of FishEUTrust’s flagship innovations:

  • Sensor technology for detecting bacteria and antibiotics in seafood
  • An immersive Virtual Supermarket experience that captivated attendees while gathering insights into consumer preferences

Events like this highlight the important role of innovation in creating a sustainable future—and show how FishEUTrust is leading the way in building a more transparent seafood system for everyone.
