Organized in the form of a dinner-debate, this meeting offers a privileged setting for discussing the economic prospects, challenges and innovations impacting the yachting industry worldwide. It highlights the importance and economic influence of yachting, not only around the world, but also in the South of France and the Principality of Monaco.
