The International Superyacht Society (ISS) has a membership-driven mandate to continually promote initiatives of real value to the large yacht industry and is dependent on both membership and sponsorship revenue to support and implement significant programs toward this end. It is with this in mind that ISS is pleased to announce that perennial supporter, The Yacht Report Group, is again sponsoring the ISS Awards for Design and Leadership in 2011 and has made the following information available regarding its American Superyacht Forum. Both functions accomplish critical ISS objectives in providing educational, networking and recognition platforms to further the ‘good of the industry’.
The American Superyacht Forum 16-18th May 2011
Hosted by The Yacht Report Group, and organised by Superyacht Events, the American Superyacht Forum is the largest conference in the world that is focused solely on the American Superyacht Industry. The event will bring together 300 industry decision makers and influencers, all passionate about strategising the ways in which the American industry is going to pull itself out of the economic decline and gear towards a stable future.
With empty order books, over regulation and a depressing USA and Caribbean charter business, we need to act NOW. By returning to Fort Lauderdale, arguably the home of the American superyacht industry the Superyacht Events Team has been able to scale up the event, with increased attendance, fantastic and original networking opportunities and of course our formula of excellent conference programming.
So join us, on the 16-18 May, alongside 300 of the leading figures in the superyacht industry, both American and international, for three days of seminar sessions, presentations and debate all designed to make notable steps in the climb out of the global recession.
ASF promises to deliver the best meeting place for the most influential gathering of superyacht players, all of whom have the American market at the heart of their business plan. Don’t miss this fantastic event; book your place in Fort Lauderdale.
