5 Min With...Othman Ben Abbes - A Shrimp Farmer | XPANSE

In this episode of 5 Min With... at XPANSE 2024, Amir Alexander Karim, University Lecturer at Harbour.Space, sits with Othman Ben Abbes, aerospace engineer turned shrimp farmer, Othman Ben Abbes, Founder & CEO of Aqua Development Ltd., as he shares his journey from aerospace to aquaculture. As co-founder of a nature-inspired shrimp farming venture, he explains how his team builds scalable, high-yield farms by mimicking natural ecosystems rather than sterilizing them. Driven by a love for marine biology and a dose of what he calls “founder delusion,” Othman discusses why restoring ecological balance in farming isn’t just sustainable, it’s wildly productive.
