Focus

CRISP will focus on two main modes of industrial fishing and its products, namely trawling and purse-seine fishing. Some 90% of total Norwegian landings (by weight) are taken by these gears. Through this initiative and research strategy, the Centre aim to transform fisheries technology, and bring the industry a major step forward with respect to reduced environmental impact and improved food quality.

CRISP will provide this arena by bringing together world-leading Norwegian companies that supply fishery technology and marine products and scientific research institutions into a virtual centre.
