The Sixth International Symposium on Tilapia in Aquaculture will
be held at the Philippines International Convention Center and the Westin
Philippine Plaza in Manila. The ISTA’s are held every four years and are
the only international conference devoted to this rapidly growing industry.
Past symposia have highlighted the advances in various regions of the world
and now after 16 years it will return to Asia.
The focus of the meeting will be the exploding trade in tilapia products and
the role of Asia, and especially the Philippines, as a center of advancement
in technology as well as production for the international markets. The
conference will include technical presentations, producer workshops, an
industry trade show and farm tours. Social events will include a welcome
reception at the Westin Plaza with its spectacular location on Manila Bay
across the street from the Convention Center. It will also include a
dinner at Intramedios, the magnificently restored old city with its forts,
museums, galleries and restaurants.
