Dubai: GCC Smart Yachting Days 28-29 February 2024

“Reinventing Yachting and Marina Development”, Monaco Marina Management (M3) will host the second edition of the GCC Smart Yachting Days from 28-29 February to coincide with the  Dubai International Boat Show 2024. Taking place at The Westin Dubai Mina Seyahi Beach Resort and Marina, this networking event will bring together experts from across the marina and yachting sectors to explore sustainable maritime solutions in GCC countries.

The 2023 edition welcomed 70 key players from the yachting industry, and this year M3 is extending its invitation to designers, yacht owners, shipyards, architects, yachting startups, investors, project managers, marina operators, and real estate promotors. The event offers participants the opportunity to take part in a variety of workshops, presentations and networking sessions.

The focus of the GCC Smart Yachting Days is protection of the marine environment, exploring ways to make the GCC an attractive marina and coastal real estate investment opportunity, and how the GCC can set new standards in smart and sustainable yachting and yacht ownership.

Workshops will address topics such as: Sustainable practices in marina development, balancing luxury with responsible practices, circular economy strategies for more sustainable yachting, and investing in innovation for sustainable yachting and sustainable marinas.

Joining forces with Yachting Ventures, 10 startups will also have the opportunity to pitch for the Innovation Award, celebrating the most innovative solutions to steer the yachting and marina sectors towards a smarter and greener future.
