About ICBEOS 2027
Where aquatic food systems and ocean engineering meet
ICBEOS 2027 brings together researchers, academicians, industry experts, policymakers, entrepreneurs, development agencies, and students to discuss emerging technologies and sustainable solutions for integrated management of blue economy-based food, water, energy, and environmental resources.
The conference is designed around collaboration across aquaculture, ocean engineering, and naval architecture, with a strong emphasis on intelligent systems, hydrodynamics, ocean science, circular production, marine resilience, and sustainable blue food systems.
