Registration Now Open for the 2025 Responsible Seafood Summit in Cartagena

The Global Seafood Alliance (GSA) has announced that registration is now open for the 2025 Responsible Seafood Summit, taking place September 29 to October 2 at the Intercontinental Cartagena de Indias in Cartagena, Colombia.

Now in its 24th year, the Responsible Seafood Summit is the premier international seafood business conference, dedicated to advancing responsible practices throughout the seafood supply chain, encompassing aquaculture, fisheries, and the marketplace. The summit brings together industry leaders from around the globe for three days of networking, field trips, and forward-thinking discussions that address the most pressing challenges and opportunities in seafood production and trade.

This year’s event will include a welcome reception, a cocktail hour celebrating the 2025 Innovation Award finalists, and a special cultural dinner experience highlighting the vibrant flavors and traditions of Colombia’s Caribbean coast. Attendees will also have the opportunity to participate in field trips to explore Colombia’s diverse seafood sector and responsible efforts firsthand.

The summit is designed for a broad range of seafood professionals, including producers, suppliers, buyers, researchers, NGOs, and policymakers—anyone committed to building a more responsible and resilient seafood system.

Early bird registration is available through June 30. GSA has secured discounted hotel room blocks at the Intercontinental Cartagena de Indias, the event’s headquarters. Space is limited. Reserve your hotel room here.
