Research and development since 1979...

The leaseholders comprise various research institutions, development and educational institutions, companies and organizations related to the fishing industry, from both the private, semi-governmental and public sector. The idea of the centre is to have both researchers and representatives from the commercial fishing industries together under one roof for the benefit of the fisheries.
Each of the leaseholders have their own economy, board, management, etc. Apart from their own offices they can use the common facilities, such as: canteen, laboratories, auditorium, meeting rooms, i.e. When it comes to marketing the leaseholders often do it jointly, using the worldwide respected name: The North Sea Centre.
The North Sea Centre is internationally recognized for its expertise on: research, resource management, monitoring, development, and training, and acts as advisor on subjects related to fisheries, fisheries management, aquaculture, and aquatic environment to both national and international organizations.
