Gulf Superyacht Summit 2024 programme announced

SuperYacht Times is proud to announce the full schedule for this year’s Gulf Superyacht Summit 2024, held at the Jumeirah Beach Hotel, Dubai.

Gulf Superyacht Summit 2024 programme

SuperYacht Times has successfully hosted two editions of the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/232" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gulf Superyacht Summit - 2024">Gulf Superyacht Summit (GSS)</a>, in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Drawing on insights from these previous editions and feedback from our attendees and partners, we are implementing major changes to the event’s set-up. These adjustments are designed to highlight the positive developments, identify key challenges, and focus on the solutions, so that we can drive further positive change in the region. This year's event will once again be held under the patronage of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6707" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="P&O Marinas (Company)">P&amp;O Marinas</a>.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/302006/image/large-523927ee97e59451086e876416452cfb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/302006">Research project&nbsp;The Gulf Superyacht Market Report has been highly successful in providing a detailed market analysis. This year, the focus of the report will shift slightly as our team researches all the positive changes observed in the region over the last five to ten years. These improvements are often overlooked. By maintaining a yearly record, we aim to consistently highlight the progress achieved.Additionally, the report will feature input from key industry stakeholders from the region and detail all the challenges that remain. This will provide a comprehensive overview of the focus areas for the upcoming GSS, serving as a basis for shaping the panel discussions and workshops.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/250654/image/large-993514269e10bd6c830dae5897a0c594.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/250654">A new conference programmeOur experience from the past two editions has shown that most discussions often circle back to the same challenges, leading to a repetition and tendency to end on a negative note due to a lack of focus on solutions. With the findings from our research project, we will design panels and workshops that are solution oriented.&nbsp;A few key points:Opening PresentationThe opening presentation will summarise the findings of the report and introduce the new conference programme, outlining how everyone present can actively participate in driving the necessary change.Panels focussed on SolutionsFollowing the opening presentation, two panels will initiate in-depth discussions focused on identifying the solutions. The topics and speakers for these initial panels will be announced shortly. If you have suggestions for issues that need addressing or speakers who should be featured, please contact us. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/249736/image/large-bb6cbf5650eb1b893d9b6e6ea2185f9b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/249736">Opportunities &amp; LearningsAt the Gulf Superyacht Summit, we will also invite some people who have built successful companies to share key insights and lessons we can learn from their experiences. Furthermore, we will invite speakers from nearby regions to discuss opportunities there and explore collaborative strategies to attract more yachts to the Middle East and Asia.InspirationalA successful conference not only informs but also inspires attendees and adds a touch of fun. To this end, we are preparing several unique presentations and lining up excellent speakers.&nbsp;Interactive and Live involvementDriving change requires the involvement of all stakeholders. At the GSS, we will continue to use digital tools to engage the audience actively. Moreover, this year will feature dedicated workshops and enhanced direct participation from attendees during panel discussions.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/294633/image/large-7930321a891004659fe6ce0babe05f58.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/294633">Increased Network OpportunitiesConnecting people is one of the key elements of any conference. This year’s programme will include over 12 hours of networking. A list of the guests and speakers will be made available, and we will introduce new digital tools ahead of the event to make connecting and planning meetings easier.&nbsp;Key network events include:<ul><li>Breakfast networking</li><li>Coffee breaks</li><li>90-min lunch break</li><li>Welcome drinks</li><li>Networking dinner</li></ul>Q&amp;A:Who is in the audience?We expect around 275 people to join the event and they will include:<ul><li>Government representatives</li><li>Tourism authorities</li><li>Owner’s representatives</li><li>Captains &amp; crew</li><li>Yacht Managers</li><li>Brokers</li><li>Builders</li><li>Designers</li><li>Yacht Agents</li><li>Marinas Professionals</li><li>Suppliers</li></ul>And many others.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/294644/image/large-1b90044010b119b30b0db28da557194a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/294644">Do you have any input for the report on the positive change you have seen in the region, like changes in regulations, or do you want to share the challenges you are facing today then please get in touch with us through <a href="mailto:news@superyachttimes.com" title="">news@superyachttimes.com</a>.How can I attend?<a href="https://dubai.platinumlist.net/event-tickets/94185/gulf-superyacht-summit" target="_blank">You can buy your ticket now via the Gulf Superyacht Summit website</a>, early bird ticket sales will end on 14 October.&nbsp;Who will be the speakers?The speakers will be announced shortly.How can I submit my input about the region?Yes for sure - please email your ideas to <a href="mailto:info@superyachttimes.com" target="_blank">info@superyachttimes.com</a>.&nbsp;Can I be a speaker?We are open to all speaker suggestions and if you have any suggestions please email them to <a href="mailto:info@superyachttimes.com" target="_blank">info@superyachttimes.com</a>.&nbsp;Can I still sponsor the event?Please get in touch with our sales team for the availability of our sponsorship packages through <a href="mailto:sales@superyachttimes.com" target="_blank">sales@superyachttimes.com</a>. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/319920/image/large-3dfe62cefc962dfda7d3e0cf252b4b7d.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/319920"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/332007/image/large-f610ebd4d538c46b7eb8dde87de89f2b.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/332007">
