Metstrade organizers have established the Superyacht Content Board, which will foster stronger ties with associations in the superyacht sector. With its acquisition of The Superyacht Forum, Metstrade has solidified its commitment to address the educational needs of the superyacht segment.
“The establishment of the Superyacht Content Board underscores the exceptional relationship between Metstrade and the superyacht industry,” show director Niels Klarenbeek said in a statement. “Metstrade is renowned for its ‘for the industry, by the industry’ ethos. I am confident that the Superyacht Content Board will enhance our Superyacht Pavilion, its educational components and fringe events.”
Consisting of trade associations in superyacht construction, brokerage, refit and operations, the board will gather biannually in April/May and November during Metstrade. On May 7, the board convened for its inaugural meeting in Amsterdam, providing guidance on Metstrade, including its Superyacht Pavilion and The Superyacht Forum.
The Superyacht Forum is scheduled for Nov. 18-19. Metstrade runs Nov. 19-21.
The members of the Superyacht Content Board include:
• International Council of Marine Industry Associations
• International Yacht Brokers Association
• MYBA, the worldwide yachting association
