In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we explore how Norway’s development license program triggered a wave of high-risk engineering to overcome limits in Atlantic salmon production. The conversation breaks down the shift toward open-ocean platforms, closed-containment systems, and the technologies reshaping environmental control, biosecurity, and regulatory expectations. Hear how these innovations are setting new global standards for aquaculture sustainability and production capacity. Listen now on all major platforms!

Inspired by the 2022 article titled "Technological innovations promoting sustainable salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture in Norway" by Føre, Heidi Moe, et al.
