NSPIRE: Bringing Technological Innovation to Fisheries and Seafood

Transforming seafood systems through tech-powered partnerships.

NSPIRE will address the economic, environmental, and policy challenges threatening New England’s seafood industry through technological innovation that strengthens boat-to-plate initiatives and collaborative science across the supply chain.

Project Goals:

  • Mobilize New England’s dynamic, expanding, and world‑leading tech sector to break through bottlenecks across the seafood supply chain.
  • Bring boat‑to‑plate initiatives and collaborative science to the table to increase the volume, quality, consistency, variety, and value of seafood products in New England and across the U.S.
  • Scale existing cross-sector partnerships, projects, and programs into a thriving innovation ecosystem.
  • Ground R&D efforts in the real-world needs of harvesters, processors, distributors, and marketers.
  • Prepare the next generation of seafood industry professionals through integration of technological training.
  • Engage public, private, and philanthropic investors to support growth at the intersection of seafood and technology.

Paving the way for the future of seafood.
