Welcome to The World Yacht Racing Forum
STEERING THE BUSINESS OF YACHT RACING
The first edition of the World Yacht Racing Forum in 2008 was a great success. With 350 participants badged and over 60 media organisations accredited, the Forum provided the first ever real opportunity for key figures from the business of yacht racing to meet, network and share their expertise.
The networking opportunity between the World Yacht Racing Forum and Motorsport Business Forum also offered an exclusive access for delegates from both of these high profile sports to meet and forge new relationships.
Sponsors, Event organizers, Federations, Team managers, Pro sailors, Media and representatives of host cities and venues are just some of the participating organizations that have benefitted from the World Yacht Racing Forum.
