Organisation records are published from the Flux Forward organisation register and shown here exactly as that register holds them. We do not research, write or edit them on this site, and a listing is not an endorsement or a sign that an organisation can help with your situation.

Entrepreneurs working in aquaculture can submit a business plan through a page on the website, without an introduction. The investing side is separate and is marketed to accredited investors.
About
Aqua-Spark is a Utrecht-based investment organisation that describes itself as a holding company for solutions to problems in aquaculture, the farming of fish and other seafood. It is backed by a community of private investors from many countries and it invests globally rather than only in the Netherlands. Its stated aim is to move aquaculture towards production that is healthy, sustainable and affordable while still giving investors a financial return. It invests across six areas: production, including fish farms, feed mills and hatcheries; feed ingredients; fish health and disease prevention; aquaculture technology; turning waste into higher-value products; and alternatives to conventional seafood, including plant-based and cell-based options. The organisation runs more than one fund, including the Aqua-Spark Global Fund and Aqua-Spark Africa, and states that it is marketed to accredited investors under the European Venture Capital Fund Regulation. Its office is on Nieuwegracht in Utrecht, and the site publishes a Chamber of Commerce number, a general telephone number and both general and deal-specific email addresses.
