THE PROMISE OF THE SEA
S. E. A. W. E. E. D. S. 2026

The global marine biotechnology sector is rapidly evolving,
with seaweed emerging as a powerhouse of sustainable resources. From food and pharmaceuticals to environmental services and climate solutions, these “forests of the sea” are among the most productive and ecologically vital marine resources on Earth. Recognizing this immense potential and India’s burgeoning ‘Blue Economy’ initiatives, we are proud to host the inaugural S.E.A.W.E.E.D.S. 2026: International Symposium on Seaweeds: Value Chains, Climate Solutions, and Blue Economy Pathways, an expo and business meet.

ABOUT

KOCHI

Nestled on the  southwestern coast of India, Kochi (also known as Cochin) is a vibrant city that serves as a perfect blend of rich history, cultural diversity, and modern dynamism. Often referred to as the “Queen of the Arabian Sea,” Kochi has been a major port and trading hub for centuries, attracting merchants from around the globe. 

This coastal jewel is located in the state of Kerala, a tropical paradise known as “God’s Own Country.” Kerala, located at the southern tip of India, is celebrated for its lush landscapes, serene backwaters, and a unique cultural heritage.
The state’s captivating beauty and tranquil environment provide an ideal setting for intellectual exchange and relaxation. Within this breathtaking Indian state, Kochi’s legacy of global exchange is particularly visible.
