The way to the excellence in nautical sector fair, small shipyards recovering too
We want the Genoa one to become, by far, the first boat show in the world. We are not far from it at all, because above us we have the boat shows in Düsseldorf and Fort Lauderdale.
The 66th edition of the Genoa boat show has been inaugurated by Confindustria nautica president Piero Formenti and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. Formenti aims for the Genoa show to become the world's leading boat show, citing growth while others, such as Dusseldorf and Fort Lauderdale, are experiencing difficulties. The Italian nautical industry is valued at 8.7 billion euros and contributes significantly to the country's economy, with a 50% increase in induced economic activity.
Several companies, including Azimut Yachts and Ferrari Hypersail, have announced partnerships and new projects, while others report a slowdown in sales but expect a recovery.
