The event held over 1,000 meetings dedicated to business matching, allowing companies in the sector such as shipyards, refit yards and suppliers to connect with superyacht captains, attend tours in the yachting districts and observe technical workshops. Meetings also focused on topics of the development of new propulsions, cybersecurity, innovation and sustainability, legal and financial aspects of management, and more.

Pietro Angelini, general manager at NAVIGO, commented, “We are pleased to have organised YARE in presence, instead of postponing it to 2022. There was a need for a restart signal for meetings and face-to-face business meetings in the yachting industry. An offer in which both the companies and the captains have joined and participated with interest and positivity.”

The Passerelle Pitch, an award dedicated to the innovative projects of the companies participating in YARE, was awarded to German uniform suppliers Marinepool and its CEO Robert Stark for their nautical clothing collection created using only sustainable and recycled materials and fabrics.

YARE also presented the 'Med New Job’ workshop, attended both in presence and via Zoom. The focus involved the companies present at YARE, such as production and refit yards and supply and service companies, responding to the issues that new professional figures in the yachting industry may face. In the afternoon, the workshop participants visited the yachting district of the Darsena with a tour of the Overmarine shipyards, Polo Nautico and the Yacht Broker marina.
