Beneteau Group and Sanlorenzo onboard at boot Düsseldorf’s Blue Innovation Dock

Boot Düsseldorf is set once again be a vital exchange hub for the industry from January 21-29 as trends and innovations for the 2023 season will be on display and in focus through the 16 exhibition halls. A central pillar to the show will be the Blue Innovation Dock (BID) in hall 10, where a different key theme will be covered each day of the show.

“This makes the bid a must-attend event for all trade visitors to boot Düsseldorf. The content partner is European Boating Industry - EBI. Participation is free of charge for visitors to boot Düsseldorf and, with its high information content, it offers great added value for the professionals", said boot Director Petros Michelidakis.

One of those leading the charge when it comes to sustainability is undoubtedly the Beneteau Group which has signed up as Performance Partner of the Sustainability Forum, where it will present its latest development: The sailing yacht First 44 and the Delphia Line.

Italian builder Sanlorenzo has also been named Project Partner for the Blue Innovation Dock. Sustainability is front and centre in the Italian builder’s future growth strategies - it has established “Sustainability Divisions” to develop guidelines on how sustainability can also be applied to luxury yachts.  

In addition, other yacht, boat and engine manufacturers as well as charter companies are pool partners of the BID:

“We have a total of twelve active supporters of the BID on board. I am very pleased that the cooperation with European Boating Industry as content partner has been so fruitful in such a short time and that we have been able to win over the expertise of European politics and internationally active companies”, explains Petros Michelidakis.

As pool partners, the following companies (in alphabetical order) will support boot 2023 in the BID: Azimut, Bavaria, Brunswick, DMarin, ePropulsion, Fabiani Yachts, Greenline, Princess, Silent Yachts, Sunreef and Torqeedo.
