Women executives debate on marine bio-resources

With the BioMarine Business Convention getting closer and closer, the BioMarine Resources blog takes a closer look at the program.

One of the highlights of the first day is the 'Women executives debate on marine bio-resources'.  There's a great panel keen to get stuck into the issues affecting bio-resources.  Chaired by BBC Frozen Planet series producer, Vanessa Berlowitz, the debate promises to be a lively start to the convention.
