APEC Forum
ABOUT

The fishing industry is a critical global food source, with the Asia-Pacific region being the world's largest fishing production source. In the face of depleting marine resources and a shortage of fishermen, the use of smart technologies such as AI, UAV(unmanned aerial vehicle), and sensing technology to create an efficient and resilient "blue granary" industry chain has become crucial. Meanwhile, leveraging smart technologies to assist fisheries operators in improving production techniques, accumulating digital assets, and advancing digital transformation is essential. By enhancing efficiency and effectiveness through precision fisheries, strengthening supply chain flexibility, and maximizing the sustainable value of the ocean, the urgent focus on the development of the fishing industry cannot be overstated.

To assist operators in leveraging smart technologies to create efficient and resilient precision fisheries production models, the Department of Industrial Technology of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Chinese Taipei, is supporting the Industrial Technology Research Institute and the Metal Industries Research & Development Center. They are developing a Precision fishery AIoT value-added system that integrates AI and sensing technology for automatic fish exploration, analysis of fish hotspots, automatic water quality testing, and intelligent fish feeding activities. These functions are being practically applied in pelagic fisheries and aquaculture to reduce environmental damage while enhancing the efficiency and quality of fishery exploration and aquaculture. Additionally, with the support of APEC PPSTI, they are organizing the "APEC Forum on Building Precision Fishery Model Cases in the APEC Region with Smart Technology."

This forum focuses on the application and innovation of smart fisheries technology among APEC economies. It will center around three perspectives: "Technology Application and Blue Economy Development," "Building a Sustainable and Resilient Blue Granary with Smart Technologies," and "Driving Fishery Innovation through Digital Transformation." APEC economies and domestic and foreign experts are invited to share successful experiences in the development and application of smart fisheries technology in various regions. The aim is to encourage more developers to join the industry ecosystem and promote more diverse innovation and applications. Join us in Taipei and sign up now.
