Experiential Yachting Forum in Monaco on 21 April 2022

Experience Economy is rapidly representing a large part of the yachting industry where the effect of its goods and services on people's lives is emphasised with purpose and additional value.

An increasing number of yacht owners are commissioning vessels that are destined beyond the boundaries of conventional yachting use. But such an approach requires specialist knowledge and expertise in the fields of Ocean and Human Health, Marine Science, Neuroscience, Philosophy, Metaverse, AI & VR Technology and more.

For the first time therefore, the world’s experts in experiential, such as yachting professionals, experience providers, owners, owner representatives and captains are coming together, both on-site in Monaco, and worldwide, virtually, on April 21st 2022 for a one-day forum to (e-)meet, discuss and share their experiences in this new and exciting area.

In light of the current worldwide events, if required, the topics, input and content will be adjusted to remain relevant and bring value out of respect of the situation. The forum has a purpose to unite and a chance for all to share our voices and provide purpose. Now more than ever is this important.

Beginning with registration at 9:00am and ending with a special prize from one of the superyacht owners attending: two nights aboard M/Y STARDUST OF MARY discovering Atlantic Ocean adventures in Portugal along with other surprises, the forum will allow delegates to interact with the trail-blazing experts and innovative thought-leaders at the very forefront of experiential yachting.

A unique, never-experienced before session at a yachting forum will take place in the afternoon, whereby a compilation of short pre-recorded video inputs from top brokers, captains, owners and charterers worldwide will be screened answering the question: “What is the most incredible experience you have ever had on a yacht or ever delivered to a client.”

The day promises invaluable insights from some of the world’s most experiential-orientated minds, sharing what has never been shared before in a series of short, carefully prepared sessions that are idea[1]focused, and cover a wide range of subjects to foster learning, inspiration and wonder – and provoke conversations that matter.

The Forum is being held with visionary partners Yacht Club de Monaco - playing a dynamic leading role in the life of Monaco's main port, Berkeley Rand - a design and engineering house, creating unique experiential marine-based expeditions for Superyacht clients, Blue Marine Foundation - a charity dedicated to restoring the ocean to health by addressing overfishing, Yachting Fishing Specialists – offering the best fishing experience from Monaco to the Seychelles; with the support of media partners Boat International, Forbes Monaco and The Superyacht Group.

The summit is being generously supported by Oceanco – one of the world’s premier custom builders for innovative superyachts.
