The need to shift to a new paradigm can be felt in every industry. Markets are increasingly rewarding sustainability and punishing the opposite, from customers who demand it, to financial institutions using their capital to drive change. Critical to improve is the ability to assess and subsequently, having access to resources and best practices to support becoming more sustainable. Water Revolution Foundation embodies this effort for the superyacht industry and will share its mission and the tools and resources it is developing to drive change. The change needed for healthy oceans and a sustainable superyacht industry.

4:15 Builders Panel: Challenges and Opportunities in a Prospering Market

We are at an inflection point: part covid, part stock market, part supply chain and labor challenges, part inflation and part a drive toward sustainability. And while the impact of each specific driver is difficult to determine, the result has been the long-desired surge in new, first-time charterers and owners and a market that has grown and is prospering. And all this underscored by a demographic of those with the capacity to participate in the superyacht life increasing in the years to come. Given this moment, what are the key consideration of builders today and how will they leverage the opportunity of today’s market?
