ABOUT TSSS

The Tokyo Sustainable Seafood Summit (TSSS) is one of the largest sustainable seafood events in Asia, held annually since 2015.

Based on a theme focusing on the pursuit of environmental sustainability and social responsibility to realize a sustainable seafood industry, front-runners from diverse organizations, including experts, companies, and NGOs in the fields of seafood-related business, fishery resource management, blue finance, and fishery policy, both domestic and international, share their latest knowledge. Participants continue to be inspired by the encounters at TSSS, which have led to a number of joint projects among many organizations.

In 2021, TSSS changed its role and name from a symposium to a summit, and began the challenge of further accelerating the sustainable seafood movement.

Finally, in 2024, the TSSS will be held for the 10th time.

Toward a sustainable and abundant ocean.

We will continue to develop the TSSS as a powerful stage for designing a sustainable seafood industry together with everyone.
