Sostenibilità digitale e comunicazione: una bussola anche per la filiera ittica

 [[{“value”:”

In un panorama dove i contenuti digitali corrono veloci e si moltiplicano senza sosta, anche la filiera ittica è chiamata a riflettere sulla sostenibilità digitale nella comunicazione. Non si tratta solo di impatto ambientale, ma anche di etica, trasparenza e responsabilità nei messaggi che le aziende trasmettono. È su queste basi che la Fondazione per la Sostenibilità Digitale ha presentato il “Manifesto per la Sostenibilità Digitale della Comunicazione”, illustrato nella Sala Stampa della Camera dei Deputati.

Nato dal lavoro congiunto di esperti e stakeholder del settore media, il Manifesto mira a fornire strumenti concreti per professionisti, imprese e istituzioni, definendo 11 principi fondamentali per rendere la comunicazione digitale più etica, inclusiva e a basso impatto ambientale. Un terreno che incrocia inevitabilmente anche le sfide della filiera ittica, da anni impegnata a riposizionarsi come protagonista della transizione ecologica.

Greenwashing e reputazione di filiera

“Uno degli errori più comuni? Il greenwashing”, ha spiegato Stefano Epifani, presidente della Fondazione. Una trappola nella quale anche le aziende ittiche più strutturate rischiano di cadere, quando trasformano la sostenibilità in una semplice etichetta da esibire anziché in una pratica sostanziale, coerente e verificabile. La sostenibilità digitale nella comunicazione rappresenta allora un’occasione per rafforzare la credibilità del comparto, soprattutto in un momento in cui l’attenzione di buyer, GDO e consumatori si concentra sempre più su coerenza e trasparenza.

Il Manifesto sottolinea, ad esempio, l’importanza di ridurre l’impronta energetica dei contenuti digitali, promuovere una reale accessibilità alle informazioni, garantire la correttezza dei messaggi e valorizzare le diversità culturali. Temi che si intrecciano con le caratteristiche uniche del Mediterraneo e della sua economia blu.

Una leva anche per le PMI

Per le piccole e medie imprese della filiera ittica, spesso escluse dai grandi circuiti di comunicazione, il Manifesto può diventare uno strumento di orientamento. Non serve disporre di budget elevati per praticare una comunicazione sostenibile: serve consapevolezza, metodo e rispetto per chi legge, guarda o ascolta. Evitare sovraccarichi informativi inutili, scegliere formati leggeri, adottare linguaggi inclusivi e documentare in modo trasparente il proprio operato sono pratiche che ogni realtà può fare proprie, anche a partire da una semplice pagina web o da un canale social ben gestito.

La sfida per i media settoriali

Il Manifesto chiama in causa anche chi racconta il settore, come testate, blog e piattaforme specializzate. La sostenibilità digitale nella comunicazione passa infatti anche dalla responsabilità editoriale: evitare disinformazione, usare correttamente l’intelligenza artificiale, distinguere i contenuti sponsorizzati, ridurre l’impronta ambientale delle infrastrutture editoriali digitali. In un contesto dove l’informazione settoriale ha un ruolo decisivo nella costruzione dell’identità produttiva, questa responsabilità diventa strategica.

La sostenibilità digitale nella comunicazione non è un esercizio teorico, ma un elemento essenziale per chiunque operi nella filiera ittica, dalle imprese ai media. Il Manifesto della Fondazione per la Sostenibilità Digitale offre un punto di riferimento utile per evitare scivoloni comunicativi, rafforzare la fiducia dei propri interlocutori e contribuire, davvero, a una filiera più sostenibile sotto ogni punto di vista.

Hai già intrapreso un percorso di comunicazione sostenibile nella tua realtà ittica? Raccontacelo: potremmo condividerlo come esempio utile per l’intero settore.

Marca China 2025: A Strategic Gateway for Processed and Frozen Seafood in Asia

 [[{“value”:”

Marca China 2025: A Strategic Gateway for Processed and Frozen Seafood in Asia – When it comes to expanding markets and new opportunities for processed agri-food products, Marca China 2025 stands out as one of the most significant international trade events. This year’s edition, set for September 25–26 at the Guangzhou Poly World Trade Expo Centre, marks a major turning point: not only is the fair completely renewed, but it has also been strategically relocated to Guangzhou, the economic hub of Southern China and a key access point to Southeast Asia.

Spanning a 20,000-square-meter exhibition space, the fair will host over 500 exhibitors, including OEM/ODM producers and specialized suppliers, presenting the best in food and non-food private label goods to an audience of more than 20,000 professional visitors. The event format includes B2B matchmaking, thematic pavilions, and dedicated forums, placing strong emphasis on international dialogue and global cooperation.

For companies in the processed and frozen seafood supply chain, the move to Guangzhou is more than just a logistical change—it signals Asia’s growing demand for private label products with high quality standards, traceability, and sustainability. These are precisely the areas where Italian seafood producers have already proven their excellence.

Asian buyers—particularly from China, South Korea, and Vietnam—are increasingly interested in premium European seafood references, both ready-to-eat and IQF, with distinctive packaging and strong brand storytelling. In this context, participating in Marca China 2025 could be a game-changer for businesses aiming to enter new markets with a structured and strategic approach, including collaborations with local partners or regional distributors.

The connection to Italy is far from secondary. Marca China is the sister fair of Marca by BolognaFiere, the leading European private label exhibition, which recently concluded its 21st edition with over 1,300 exhibitors and 23,000 professional visitors. This shared trade show expertise ensures consistency in quality, organizational competence, and international buyer selection.

In the seafood sector, where Italian offerings still struggle to gain stable footing in Asian markets—often due to logistics or taste adaptation—events like Marca China offer a valuable platform. Within a business-driven, private-label-oriented trade fair, values such as short supply chains, full traceability, and Made in Italy processing can finally find their niche.

Marca China 2025 thus represents a prime opportunity for international expansion across the agri-food industry and beyond. For seafood businesses—especially those in the processed and frozen segments—attending a fair of this caliber means positioning competitively in rapidly evolving markets and building solid relationships with Asian buyers and distributors. It’s an opportunity that deserves forward-looking consideration.

Adriatic Sea Blue Economy summit Ancona 2025

 [[{“value”:”

Adriatic Sea Blue Economy summit Ancona 2025 – On July 15, the Ministers of Albania, Croatia, Montenegro, and Slovenia, along with Italian Minister Francesco Lollobrigida, Undersecretary Giacomo La Pietra, and senior officials from the relevant administrations, convened in Ancona for a high-level political summit on “Sustainability, Innovation, and Cooperation in the Blue Economy for the Adriatic Sea.”

The meeting served as a critical step toward defining a shared vision and coordinated action plan for the future of the Adriatic basin. Leaders agreed on the need to move beyond traditional and often punitive approaches, such as limiting fishing effort—policies that risk damaging the economic fabric of coastal communities.

Ministers discussed the development of joint fisheries management strategies that incorporate the effects of climate change, such as rising sea temperatures and water levels, into stock assessment models. This holistic approach recognized that a mere reduction in fishing activity has a disruptive impact on food supply chains, increasing dependence on imports and threatening the socio-economic resilience of coastal populations.

Aquaculture, particularly shellfish farming, was another focal point. Participants stressed the urgency of addressing climate-related challenges and invasive species, including the blue crab, by implementing immediate and effective management measures to support this key sector of the Adriatic’s blue economy.

The summit also aimed to reinforce a united diplomatic front among Adriatic nations ahead of key negotiations with both the European Commission and the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM). One of the main concerns raised was the proposal to reduce fishing days, which—according to several ministers—fails to account for the ongoing decline in fishing fleet capacity, a critical socio-economic factor.

The Ancona summit proved to be a strategic platform for exchanging best practices, deepening regional cooperation, and building a shared governance model. The shared ambition was to position the Adriatic as a global benchmark for cooperative and forward-thinking marine management, showing that sustainability and economic growth can progress hand in hand through coordinated political leadership.

EU fisheries funding 2028–2034 Italy

 [[{“value”:”

EU fisheries funding 2028–2034 Italy – With the new European budget for 2028–2034, the European Union once again misses the opportunity to support its fisheries sector—confirming, if there was still any doubt, how marginal this industry is considered in Brussels.

One of the key changes in the new financial framework is that each Member State will have more freedom in deciding how to allocate EU funds (already minimal) for the fisheries sector. This shift comes through a tool called “National and Regional Partnership Plans,” aimed at adapting investments to the specific needs of each territory. In theory, this promises greater flexibility and responsiveness to local realities. But in practice, it could create more challenges than solutions.

In Italy’s case, this increased autonomy could become a double-edged sword. Public policy is notoriously complex in Italy, split between the central government and regional administrations. This raises a real risk: uneven distribution of resources. More influential or better-organized regions may secure greater funding, while areas that genuinely need support—such as Sicily, Calabria, and Sardinia, where fisheries are crucial to the local economy—could be left behind.

Another pressing concern is misallocation of funds. Resources meant to support fisheries could be diverted to other sectors or end up benefiting only large enterprises, leaving out small-scale fleets, artisanal fishers, and local cooperatives. A sector already struggling for years may be further ignored or exploited for political bargaining at the regional level.

To prevent this, clear national guidance is urgently needed. First, a set of minimum national rules must be established to ensure fair support across all regions. Second, a transparent governance system is essential—one that includes fisheries representatives at the table who act in the public interest rather than defending narrow agendas. Finally, strict monitoring is necessary to track how funds are spent and prevent waste or misuse.

Italian fisheries have been in crisis for far too long. Rising costs, increasingly strict regulations, and growing foreign competition continue to weigh heavily on the sector. If we also risk losing EU funding—or worse, misusing it—the future becomes even more uncertain.

Fisheries are part of our culture, economy, and food security. We cannot afford to leave them behind. Protecting the sector means making responsible and forward-thinking choices.
