Bioled is honored to invite you to the 9th edition of our traditional International Photoperiod Workshop. This event will take place on March 6, 2025, at the Wyndham Pettra Hotel (formerly Hotel Cumbres de Puerto Varas). It will provide a unique opportunity to learn about the latest advances in photoperiod technology and its impact on the salmon farming industry.
The workshop will be held in a hybrid format, allowing you to participate either in-person or via streaming, making it accessible from anywhere in the world.
We will feature renowned national and international speakers who will discuss essential topics such as animal welfare and energy efficiency, contributing to the sustainable development of the industry.
