Olaisen and Bรธe join Salmax Group

Injects money into a start-up company.

Aquaculture investors Aino Olaisen, Harry Bรธe and Bรธrge Lorentzsen are joining Salmax Group through Olaisen Blue Rogn AS and SS-Invest AS respectively. They will each have a 17 percent stake and will both join the Salmax Group board.

- Salmax Group has a strong and competent team with in-depth and practical knowledge of the Norwegian aquaculture industry. At the same time, the company and its employees have visions and concepts that will solve industry challenges in fish welfare, fish health and sustainability. That's why we're joining the company," says Stine Svanevik.

Svanevik is the CEO of Olaisen Blue Rogn, the company established by Nova Sea owners Aino and Maria Olaisens for early stage investments. Issue partner SS-Invest is owned by Norsk Fisketransport entrepreneurs Harry Bรธe and Bรธrge Lorentzsen.

- "We need more Norwegian entrepreneurs like the Mo brothers, who dare to invest and put in the work required to succeed," says Harry Bรธe.

Ready for the next step
- "Our new owners come in with highly relevant expertise and networks relevant to us. They will be good professional sparring partners and lift Salmax Group from the seed phase," says founder and CEO Jakob Mo.

Salmax Group was established in 2020 by the young Mo brothers from Kolvereid. While Jakob (27) is a veterinarian, Johan (23) is an aquaculture technician. With a common strong desire to make the Norwegian salmon industry even better, they believe that the solutions for modern aquaculture lie at the intersection of biology and technology. Today, Salmax Group offers service and veterinary services to the aquaculture industry, while at the same time conducting extensive research and development work in biotechnology.

Better disease warning
In 2023, Salmax Group started a collaboration with NMBU Norwegian School of Veterinary Science and Thermo Fisher Scientific to develop a new and more effective warning system for disease in salmon farming. With support from Innovation Norway, the company is now in a position to commercialize the product.

- "It may not surprise anyone that we are particularly interested in the technology concept Salmax is developing. We believe that our network and expertise are the right ones to help them move forward," says Stine Svanevik.

- We now have easier access to sample material and locations for testing and verification of our analytical tools, and can develop concepts, products and services faster," says Jakob Mo.

Salmax recently had the great honor of hosting Dr. Javiera Ortiz-Severรญn, a prominent Chilean visiting scientist, in a collaborative initiative with the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU). "This visit represents a significant step forward in our continuous quest for innovation and sustainability in aquaculture.

Dr. Ortiz-Severรญn's work in Chile, covering key areas such as antimicrobial resistance, bacterial virulence and microbial community studies, has direct relevance to our sector. Her current research project focuses on mapping antibiotic resistance genes and characterizing the microbiota composition of the water from fish farms. In Chile, where the overuse of antibiotics to combat infectious diseases in aquaculture poses a real threat of increasing antibiotic resistance, work like hers is crucial to identify and address these challenges.

Through our involvement, Dr. Ortiz-Severรญn has had the opportunity to compare these conditions with the Norwegian model, where the use of antibiotics in Atlantic salmon production is minimal. By facilitating her access to local facilities and partners, we have not only contributed to her research, but also enriched our own understanding and practice.

We believe there are significant opportunities hidden in the metagenome of aquatic environments. Dr. Ortiz-Severรญn's research may uncover new understandings that can help improve both sustainability and animal welfare in our sector. We eagerly await the final results of her work, confident that they will provide valuable insights for the future.

This visit has not only strengthened Salmax's international connections, but also opened the doors to new and exciting collaboration opportunities. We are committed to continuing this fruitful collaboration, which will strengthen our vision and lay the foundation for a more sustainable and responsible future in aquaculture.
