Organisers of the METSTRADE trade exhibition have revealed the 53 products that are nominated to enter the final rounds of judgment for the 32nd edition of the DAME Design Awards.
An international jury of eight design and user experts assembled in the DAME Award’s assessment room at RAI Amsterdam in the Netherlands to spend two days examining 100 submissions. The 53 entries selected for nomination will feature in the DAME exhibition as examples of holistic design efforts within the marine equipment sector.
The winners for each of this year’s eight completely new DAME categories will be selected from this group of 53 nominations, which hail from 19 countries across four continents. One of those winners will go on to be named as the recipient of the overall DAME Award. The jury also confirmed it will name a discretionary Environmental Design Award winner for the second year in succession.
Winners will be announced at the METSTRADE 2023 Breakfast Briefing in the RAI Amsterdam Convention Centre on 15 November 2023, following a keynote speech by Sanlorenzo’s CEO, Massimo Perotti.
