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, 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.

Semar (Serveis Marítims Port Eivissa) has teamed up with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6623" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ocibar (Company)">Ocibar</a> to renovate the yacht facility formerly known as La Marina de Valencia, converting it into Marina Port Valencia.&nbsp;Located in the northern part of the Port of Valencia, this project is being facilitated by two groups that specialise in benchmark yachting projects in the Mediterranean. The companies’ right to operate and manage the concession was signed earlier this week on 1 October. They will now develop and operate the project submitted to Valencia Port Authority for a minimum period of 35 years.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/331229/image/large-4e1695846313bf69f20dab3003726572.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/331229">The project includes three separate marinas - Marina Norte, Marina Sur and Marina City - and will renovate the entire site, breathing new life into it. The new Marina Valencia licence-holder is set to restore the “previous life and spirit” of the area, which once hosted the America’s cup, according to IPM Group.The renovation will see the facility be separated into four individual areas the first of which will consist of three marinas in the centre of the city for yachts between eight and 130-metres in length. The second section will comprise the construction of a refit and repair yard housing specialist companies.&nbsp;Moreover, the third section will include a leisure, dining, and entertainment area that merges with the locale, ensuring the marina is a popular venue for local, national, and international visitors. Lastly, the fourth section will feature an architecturally aesthetic area offering sea views, offices, and retail units, which will also be paired with parking spaces, bike lanes, jogging tracks, terraces, and landscaped gardens.&nbsp;“However, the project doesn’t just involve the revamp of the marina, but also includes the development of fascinating social, nautical, environmental and sporting proposals that will be rolled out as the whole project takes shape,” IPM group explains.&nbsp;
