“Feedback from exhibitors only confirms a substantial sense of satisfaction of the entire sector: from superyachts to medium-sized boats to equipment and components manufacturers, who particularly appreciated the TechTrade Days, which proved to be a new addition capable of generating important contacts.
“Even the small boat industry, which had come to the boat show with trepidation, found customers, closed deals, and registered a generally positive sentiment.”
And he explained how the association has established new contacts and strengthened collaborations, and defined important agreements with institutions at every level, both national and international, from governmental bodies to associations.
Among these was the signing of an agreement for the Italian Marine Industry Association to be a strategic partner of the Louis Vuitton 38th America’s Cup, to be held in Naples in 2027.
