Talking innovation at AFRAQ2025!

On Thursday, June 26 at 3:00 PM, in the Kabalega Hall at AFRAQ2025, Prof. Em. Eduardo De Francesco delivered a talk as part of the session Digital Technologies and Aquaculture Engineering Raw Materials, chaired by Meenakshisundaram Menaga.

His presentation, titled:

“MAR: the amphibious rover for the protection of Lake Victoria – monitoring, restoration, and invasive species control”,
focused on the MAR – Multipurpose Amphibious Rover, the vehicle developed by SeTeL to protect aquatic ecosystems, with targeted applications in environmental monitoring, habitat restoration, and invasive species control.

That was a must-attend session for anyone looking toward the future of aquaculture and technology for the protection of inland waters!

A look at our booth at Afraq2025 in Uganda!

We’re excited to share a photo gallery straight from SeTeL’s booth at Afraq2025also known as World Aquaculture Safari 2025.

At the event we’re showcasing our Research & Development project MAR – Multipurpose Amphibious Rover, an all-terrain amphibious vehicle designed for complex and dynamic environments.

Explore the gallery and join us on this journey of technology, vision, and global collaboration!

Setel at CNR for the Conference on Biodiversity and Sustainability!

On March 25th, Setel participated in the event Biodiversity and Sustainability: new market opportunities, organized by CNR in Rome. It was an unmissable opportunity to explore the challenges and opportunities for the future of biodiversity and sustainability!

During the conference, Setel had the privilege of presenting Biovalvia 4.0, our innovative project dedicated to sustainability in aquaculture practices. Biovalvia aims to revolutionize the monitoring, maintenance and inspection of waters for shellfish cultivation, using an advanced amphibious rover equipped with a mechanical arm, sensors, actuators and artificial intelligence (Multipurpose Amphibious Rover) to study the behavior of the blue crab.

With Biovalvia, we not only improve the efficiency of operations, but we also contribute to preserving marine biodiversity, trying to combat the blue crab and promoting innovative solutions for an increasingly green and responsible sector.

 Technology at the service of sustainability!

The Biovalvia project is made possible thanks to the resources of the PNRR, Mission 4 “Education and Research”, and funded by the European Union – #NextGenerationEU.

AFRAQ 2024 | Hammamet

We are pleased to announce SeTeL’s participation in AFRAQ2024, the third Aquaculture Africa Conference. This year the conference will be hosted by Tunisia, from 19 to 22 November 2024, in the majestic city of Hammamet. 

The World Aquaculture Society (WAS) spearheaded the inception of the annual Aquaculture Africa Conferences (AFRAQs), which have proven to be a huge success since their commencement. These gatherings serve as a platform for aquaculture enthusiasts from different backgrounds – spanning commercial, academic, government and non-government sectors – to not only celebrate the achievements of the sector but also to collaborate on addressing its challenges. 

In this context SeTeL participates with the aim of promoting advanced technological solutions (SeTeL – MAR – Multipurpose Amphibious Rover) in the field of fish farming, aquaculture and mussel cultivation. At our stand it is possible to learn more about the Rover and its technology, the most recent projects, exchange ideas and discuss with experts in the sector. 

At the opening of the conference we also had the opportunity to present our Rover to some representatives of the Tunisian government, whom we thank again for their interest.
