There were two sessions, the first being about “Propulsion systems and alternative fuels, with a view to environmental sustainability and compliance with new regulations.” The second session honed in on “Prevention of and response to onboard accidents, with a special focus on managing accidents caused by lithium batteries and new alternatives to hydrocarbon-derived fuels”.

The discussion among more than one hundred captains and chief engineers was both interesting and satisfying, because the ability of yachting professionals to work as a team and exchange insights is a core driver of the success of both Ferretti Group and its yachts. Convergence is an event that leaves us better informed, better motivated and better able to offer our owners an even safer and more rewarding yachting experience”&nbsp;Main partners <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1409" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="MTU (Company)">MTU</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a>, Simrad, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3601" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sleipner Motor AS (Company)">Sleipner</a> and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1450" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Volvo (Company)">Volvo</a> made a huge contribution to the event, along with technical sponsors Amare Group, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3524" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Asea Power Systems (Company)">Asea Power Systems</a> and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7073" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Fratelli Canalicchio (Company)">Fratelli Canalicchio</a>.
