Knut Nesse will serve as acting CEO for aquaculture tech company Akva for a "good period," he told IntraFish.

Hallvard Muri resigned from his position as CEO of Akva with effect from Nov. 4 after serving the company for more than three years. Nesse resigned as chairman of the board to take on the role of acting CEO.

"We had a three-year evaluation last week and it was a two-sided decision," Nesse said, who was formerly the CEO of Skretting's parent company Nutreco.
