This interview with Haesin, a Korean startup, discusses its innovative approach to the sea cucumber industry, a significant market, particularly in China, where demand for high-quality product is high but trust in local supply is low. Haesin addresses traditional farming challenges like environmental vulnerability and inconsistent yield through an AI- and ICT-based smart marine aquaculture system. Their method is eco-friendly, chemical- and feed-free, and incorporates upcycling of waste products, creating valuable biomaterials. Haesin’s vertical integration, from farming to processing and export, positions it as a leader in sustainable fisheries, aiming for a KOSDAQ listing and global expansion.
