Held once again at Ioesco Café Cucina in the Sanctuary Cove Marine Village, the Rivergate AIMEX VIP Dinner invited conference keynote speakers and panellists, as well as delegates from around the country, NZ and Asia-Pacific.
Steve Fisher, Rivergate’s Director of International Business welcomed guests to the dinner, which is held each year between the ASMEX Conference and the start of the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show.
“It’s always wonderful to catch up at ASMEX, and we especially appreciate it now after those few years of travel restrictions,” said Steve. “Our event has become a tradition, as a way of closing out the conference and heralding the boat show.”
Topics of discussion following ASMEX included the rise of the Pacific region as intriguing and well-serviced superyacht cruising grounds, tightening pollution regulations, particularly for charter and commercial vessels, electrification and alternative fuels, and innovative marketing concepts, including VR.
