This year the yachting community is adding another exciting event to the superyacht calendar. Saatchi Gallery in London will host the new superyacht exposition – SuperYacht Gallery. The aim of this high-end luxury concept is to inspire and connect a new generation of superyacht clients and yacht owners.
Widely supported by some big names in the industry, the idea of SuperYacht Gallery has received a large number of positive responses. SuperYacht Gallery is a joint project of Merijn de Waard, Managing Director of SuperYacht Company, and Marijn Smit, former Manager Events & Multimedia at Feadship.
The world-renowned shipbuilders Lurssen, Benetti, Abeking & Rasmussen, Baglietto, Delta Marine, and superyacht designers Winch Design, Espen Oeino, Nuvolari Lenard and many others also agree that it would be fantastic to present one-of-a-kind world super yachting in a new and thrilling way. The guests of SuperYacht Gallery will also enjoy workshops and seminars conducted by builders and designers.
“Many yachting events focus on selling space to exhibitors and completely forget about the visitor experience. With everything we do, we question ourselves whether it is comfortable and interesting for the visitor. We don’t want to create another mass event, but a high-quality and interesting exposition about the superyacht lifestyle.”— Marijn Smit – Co-Founder & Director
“The industry needs new clients, younger clients, and SuperYacht Gallery is focused on attracting the people that will be vital to the longevity of our business,” says superyacht naval architect and designer, Espen Oeino. “I’ve known the team for a long time and I have faith that they can execute this concept and that the concept itself can work – for the benefit of all.”
This luxury lifestyle event will be held from 1 to 3 June 2017 in London, UK.
