AmpliAqua® is more than a research project. It is a tangible response to the world's most pressing food production challenges.
Mission & Vision
AmpliAqua®’s mission is to accelerate the transition to more sustainable, circular and resilient food systems by integrating aquaculture, agriculture and biotechnology.
We create global impact by developing, validating, and scaling innovative solutions that reduce environmental footprints, regenerate natural resources, and enable economically viable food production models.
A world where
Food production -> Regenerates instead of depleting.
Technology and nature -> Work together.
Innovation -> Is also responsibility.
Where Science Becomes Solutions.
At our industrial-scale R&D unit in Nazaré, we develop, test, and validate technologies that address the real challenges of food production. Rather than a lab, we operate at pre-commercial scale under near-market conditions.
Our approach combines recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), bioponics, microalgae, microbial bioprocesses and advanced digital monitoring. Technologies integrated into a single system, designed to be replicated and scaled.
Circularity
Every resource is valued. Every by-product has a purpose. Nothing is wasted.
Regeneration
Reducing our impact is not enough. We must reverse the damage and restore to ecosystems what has been taken from them.
Applied Innovation
From research to market. We validate solutions in real-world environments so they go further and faster.
Built in partnership. Scaled together.
AmpliAqua® does not stand alone. Our network of scientific, technological and financial partners is a fundamental to everything we do, and how we scale our impact.
