"Come together for solutions" with other aquaculture and seafood industry leaders at Global Outlook for Aquaculture Leadership (GOAL) 2009. Organized by the Global Aquaculture Alliance, this annual aquaculture seafood-marketing event will be held October 27-30 in Seattle, Washington, USA.

GOAL 2009 attendees will gain key information on supply and demand for major traded species of farmed fish and shrimp. In addition, they will participate in essential discussions of pressing aquaculture issues and enjoy opportunities to network with 300 other seafood professionals from around the world.

"Especially in the shifting economic climate we face, GOAL will be 'the place to be' for insight on the changing face of aquaculture," GAA Assistant Director Sally Krueger said. "Buyers, producers and marketers will all gain from greater understanding of the interrelated factors that affect the industry."

Registration information for GOAL 2009 is now available. The complete registration packet can be downloaded from the Global Aquaculure Alliance website at www.gaalliance.org/goal09/goal09.pdf. The packet will be distributed electronically to all past GOAL participants soon. Registration brochures will also be available at several upcoming aquaculture conferences and expos.

Early registration is recommended -- and saves money, too. Representatives of GAA corporate members save up to U.S. $600 when they register for GOAL. If a company or group is not yet a Governing, Sustaining or Association Member of GAA, please contact GAA for additional details.
