With just under two months until the inaugural Asia-Pacific Superyacht Summit 2024, now is the time to purchase the last remaining early bird tickets for the two-day event. Scheduled to take place on the 5th and 6th June 2024 at the esteemed Renaissance Hong Kong Harbour View Hotel, SuperYacht Times is also proud to announce that InvestHK has joined as a platinum sponsor for the event.

The Asia-Pacific Superyacht Summit aims to develop the Asian superyacht market in a bid to attract more yachts to the region. Set against the vibrant backdrop of Hong Kong, renowned for its dynamic fusion of culture, commerce, and luxury, the summit promises two days of enlightening discussions and strategic insights.

Last week SuperYacht Times announced the programme of events for the two-day event, which will also include a Networking Dinner on the first evening of the event, where attendees can network with colleagues from across the industry.

This groundbreaking event serves as a catalyst for fostering collaboration and innovation within the superyacht sector, paving the way for enhanced opportunities and growth across the Asia-Pacific region.

SuperYacht Times is already successfully organising a similar event in the Middle East, the Gulf Superyacht Summit, and the two events will complement each other by helping increase the presence of yachts heading eastwards.

Simpson Superyachts, an affiliate division of the Simpson Marine Group, has been announced as the patron for the first edition of the Asia-Pacific Superyacht Summit. Also joining this year are Event Partners Damen Yachting, Platinum Sponsors Camper & Nicholsons and InvestHK, Gold Sponsors YachtEye and Gulf Craft, Silver Sponsors The Lighthouse Consultancy and Silver Yachts and Supporting Partners Asia-Pacific Superyacht Association (APSA).

"We are delighted to hear that SuperYacht Times is going to host its first Asia-Pacific Superyacht Summit in Hong Kong, the birthplace of Simpson Marine Group,” said Ewa Stachurska, Marketing Director at Simpson Marine Group.

The Asia-Pacific Superyacht Summit will focus on the development of Asia as a superyacht cruising destination and how to get more Asian clients interested in the construction, purchase, and charter of yachts.

"APSA is very pleased to hear that SuperYacht Times is planning to organise the Asia-Pacific Superyacht Summit that will help promote the region as a destination for superyachts and help to grow the market further,” added Nigel Beatty, Chairman of the Asia-Pacific Superyacht Association and head of Yachtzoo in Asia. “We at APSA will support the event and look forward to working closely with the SYT team to maximise the success of this event."

You can expect to hear about the development of Asia as a superyacht cruising destination and how to get more Asian clients interested in the construction, purchase, and charter of yachts.

For those keen to participate and delve into the forefront of this exciting endeavour, early bird tickets can be secured until 15th April, with two different types available. Standard early bird tickets give you access to the two days at the summit and include lunch and coffee breaks.
