HISWA Holland Yachting Group will turn the spotlight on the Dutch Superyacht industry during the World Superyacht Awards in Amsterdam. The group is proud to announce a creative partnership with Boat International, the organisers of this prominent event, which will be held in the Netherlands for the first time this year.

The World Super yacht Awards are to the international superyacht industry what the Oscars are to Hollywood. Jeroen Sirag, Export Director at HISWA Holland Yachting Group, is pleased that the association will participate in this high-status event as a contributing sponsor. “Our contribution ties in seamlessly with the Dutch venue and our aim of promoting the Dutch superyacht industry to around six hundred influential guests at the event in Amsterdam during the first weekend of May. Together with our members and event sponsors Amels, Feadship, Holland Jachtbouw, Heesen and Royal Huisman, we will create a memorable experience”.

The Awards
The famous Neptune statuettes will be presented at the ninth edition of the World Superyacht Awards during a gala evening at the National Maritime Museum in Amsterdam on Saturday 3 May. Neptune is the god of the sea in Roman mythology, which speaks to the beauty and power of the sea. Any superyacht launched in the past twelve months can be nominated for the awards, which are subdivided into three categories – Yacht Awards, with twelve accolades, and the Voyager Award and Legacy Award, with one each. The awards are the pride of all owners and shipyards that have received them in the past.

The primary objective of HISWA Holland Yachting Group is to promote the exports of the Dutch yacht building industry. The group distinguishes itself as a premium quality label and presents itself internationally as a proactive and effective association that stands for quality, innovation, craftsmanship and cooperation. HISWA Holland Yachting Group makes a substantial contribution to the export position of the Netherlands based on a collective strategic plan.
