Abstract
The aim of this pole of innovation is to develop the seaweed industry on a commercial scale in Mauritius. For the Mauritian economy, this will mean the creation of a new sector of business, increased exports and additional revenue. Out of this pole, there will be a raised awareness of the availability, nutritional value and medicinal qualities of seaweeds in the overall Mauritian population and the benefits to the country is the introduction of an untapped local food source that contributes to the country’s food security, the creation of jobs and healthier people, especially the young.
