The sixth edition of the Venice Boat Show scheduled to take place from 29 May to 2 June 2025 at the Arsenale was presented at a conference outlining its characteristics and mission. <\/p>\n\n
The mayor of the lagoon city, Luigi Brugnaro, emphasises that the event is strongly supported by the current municipal administration with the aim of returning the Arsenale basin<\/strong>, in the heart of Venice’s historic centre, to its original function as a water space.<\/p>\n\n Fabrizio D’Oria, operations director of Vela and the Venice Boat Show, describes it as a “place of connection and a strategic platform for building partnerships and developing projects that contribute to enhancing the boating industry,<\/strong> the Venetian territory, and the lagoon ecosystem”. Alberto Bozzo, the Show’s commercial director, explains how the event aims to confirm itself as a “reference event, capable of celebrating the excellence of the boating industry <\/strong>and promoting a dialogue between tradition, innovation, and sustainability\u0300 “.<\/p>\n\n Space for companies, therefore, especially those related to the blue economy, with a focus on innovative solutions in terms of power, management, design and technology.<\/p>\n\n Ferretti Group will present the world premiere of the Pershing GTX 70 and the Ferretti Yacht 940<\/strong>, while in terms of innovation, technology and sustainability Sanlorenzo Yacht will bring to the Show the 50Steel Almax, the first superyacht in the world equipped with a fuel cell reformer system<\/strong>, capable of transforming green methanol into hydrogen and then into electric energy to power all the h\u00f4tellerie equipment. Almax is the prelude to a new project, the 50 X-Space with bi-fuel propulsion, developed in cooperation with MAN, which uses green methanol and aims to reduce emissions during navigation by up to 70%. <\/p>\n\n The Boat Show has always paid special attention to electric or hybrid propulsion systems for boats from 6 to 50 metres, <\/strong>with transversal innovations embracing traditional, electric, and hydrogen engines. The Show thus strengthens its role as a catalyst for the transition towards sustainable boating, hosting increasingly reliable and technologically advanced boats, alongside companies committed to the production and distribution of hydrogen for the sector. In the 2025 edition, the docks of the Arsenal will host 15 boats in world previews and it will be possible to appreciate the dynamics of stylistic and functional fusion between the motor and sailing segments, without neglecting catamarans interpreting new conceptual evolutions of liveability on board. In addition, the Show will dedicate space to sport and fun on the water, with practical demonstrations and innovative products such as surfboards, foils and pads, designed for a dynamic and enthusiastic public. The 2024 edition (in the picture) registered over 30,000 visitors and the presence of more than 300 boats, 240 of which in the water<\/strong>, among the most innovative and technological ones docked along the Darsena Grande docks and the dedicated 1,100-metre-long piers. <\/p>\n\n The Boat Show’s attention also goes to start-ups; among the companies present with their own stand is in fact the start-up Digital Exhibition Group, which at the Boat Show will allow visitors to experience the Arsenal space in a very unusual way through immersive experiences and augmented reality.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n The synergy with the Italian Navy, ICE, and other institutions in the area such as the Venice World Capital Foundation remains strong, to which is added this year the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in view of Expo 2025 Osaka<\/strong>, where Venice and Italian excellence also in terms of the blue economy will have ample space to express all their potential. “It is precisely with Venice, a city that for centuries has been a bridge between East and West, that we inaugurate the promotion of Italy at Expo 2025 Osaka with a calendar full of activities and appointments: from a preview of the programme of the next Architecture Biennale 2025 (which is being held at the same time as the Boat Show on the other side of the Darsena Grande, ed.), to the Murano glass chandelier ‘DieXe’ by Kengo Kuma, to the glass vases designed by Yoichi Ohira, passing through the installation of the Bucintoro from the Correr Museum – says Mario Vattani, Commissioner General for Italy for the Japanese Expo, in a note -.<\/strong> We are also bringing the great tradition of opera, ballet and symphonic music to Japan thanks to our collaboration with the Teatro La Fenice, which will have its Choir perform at the Osaka Festival Hall on 22 April’.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The event takes place at the Arsenale and focuses on innovation, hybrid propulsion, design also in view of the Osaka Expo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":125,"featured_media":144781,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1328],"tags":[1137,1362,1136],"companies":[],"journalist":[2519],"class_list":["post-144783","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-events","tag-italy-en","tag-nautical","tag-startup-en-2","journalist-erika-faresin-en"],"featured_sizes_urls":{"thumbnail":{"src":"https:\/\/www.startupbusiness.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/SNV09.webp","width":150,"height":112,"crop":false,"srcset":false,"alt":"salone nautico venezia"},"large":{"src":"https:\/\/www.startupbusiness.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/SNV09.webp","width":1024,"height":767,"crop":false,"srcset":false,"alt":"salone nautico venezia"},"2048x2048":{"src":"https:\/\/www.startupbusiness.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/SNV09.webp","width":1280,"height":959,"crop":false,"srcset":false,"alt":"salone nautico venezia"}},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
