I am Divine Dogbeda Azumah, a pitcher at last years BIA Summit in Diani, Kenya. I am currently working with Wontesty Ventures as a blue economy project lead.

My organisation

Wontesty Ventures specializes in an innovative fish culture technology, constructing and managing raised recirculating aquaculture systems for fish cultivation on both home and commercial scales. With a focus on sustainability and affordability, the technology utilizes locally available materials and features a water-conserving aspect through continuous recycling. The key differentiation lies in a biological filtration system that converts ammonia to nitrate. Wontesty Ventures aims to democratize fish farming, challenging the perception of complexity and exclusivity. Competing with entities like BIOFLOC AFRICA and BANINI FARMS, Wontesty stands out by providing an integrated approach, encompassing pond installation, raw material supply, and processing, supported by a comprehensive tailor-made technical assistance along the value chain. The company's mission extends to transforming the aquaculture sector in Ghana by fostering catfish production, introducing value-added products.
