Who we are

Micro Algae Australia brings together producers, researchers, investors, and government agencies across the country to accelerate the growth of Australia’s emerging microalgae sector. Our network spans biotechnology, aquaculture, waste management, food and nutraceuticals, agriculture, materials science and climate innovation to unite expertise from across Australia.

Through targeted, industry-driven collaboration, Micro Algae Australia supports the development of practical, commercially viable and sustainable microalgae solutions. Our work strengthens capability across cultivation, processing, bioproduct development, and environmental applications. These areas have been highlighted as high-growth opportunities in Australia, including omega-3 oils, low-emission animal feed, bioremediation, biofertilisers, sustainable food ingredients and advanced biomaterials.

By connecting science and industry, reducing fragmentation, and enabling shared investment, Micro Algae Australia is paving the way for new jobs, new products, regional development, and world-leading innovation. We aim to position Australia as a global leader in microalgae production, building on our natural advantages in climate, research strength, and existing large-scale commercial facilities.
