In the United States, the National Algae Association (NAA) has announced that a new Algae Production Incubator Programme will be located on a 17-acre property in Texas.
The Algae Production Incubator Programme seeks to assist emerging algae growers to get into commercial production by minimizing start-up costs for the first year. The new project intends to accommodate algae production start-up companies that require land, buildings and a source of carbon dioxide for the first 12 months to grow algae for a range of uses including fuels.
The programme is open to so-called algaepreneurs, college graduates, vets and existing companies that are interested in learning about commercial algae cultivation, harvesting, extraction, economics, markets and new opportunities in the algae production industry.
