Practical tips for B2B prospecting at Aqua Farm 2027
- Prioritize target companies and request meetings in advance using the exhibitor list.
- Bring short technical briefs and case studies tailored to cultivation or processing challenges. Specific operational metrics are more effective than broad claims.
- Propose short, outcome-driven meetings and confirm locations within the venue to save time.
- Prepare a client sheet with questions on production scale, growth phases and any certifications they hold.
Key numbers and recent changes
Official communications underline the show growing international focus and the launch of new thematic areas such as AquaFishery for artisanal and professional fisheries. A 2025 summary reported a 30 percent increase in visitors, a figure to consider when planning outreach and booth staffing.
