Metstrade and The Foiling Organization present the second edition of the Foiling Technology Pavilion, the trade fair for the foiling industry, in Amsterdam on 19-21 November.
The recent Olympic Games, the America's Cup and the ongoing Vendée Globe are clear confirmation of how quickly foiling is transforming sailing and the whole of water mobility.
With this in mind, METSTRADE and The Foiling Organization have been working for the past twelve months on the second edition of Foiling Technology Pavilion, which opens tomorrow in Amsterdam.
This ground-breaking exhibition is set to transform the marine industry by bringing cutting-edge racing technology to boats. The FTP is a hub for boat enthusiasts, builders and innovators looking to incorporate foiling advances into their sail and power yachts. Located in METSTRADE's Hall 7, FTP is the ultimate event for marine enthusiasts, offering a world of aquatic innovation and insightful discussions on industry trends.
Artemis Technologies is the Presenting Partner of the Foiling Technology Pavilion Theatre, where 9 conference sessions will be chaired in three days by New York Times contributor Chris J. Museler, and will feature 26 international speakers.
On the main stage of the central METSTRADE Theatre, Luca Rizzotti, President and Founder of The Foiling Organization, will moderate two sessions dedicated to innovation and urban mobility.
In the Display Showcase area in the centre of the Pavilion, the Dutchsail Youth and Women AC Team, in collaboration with Delft University, will provide visitors with an AC40 simulator for testing.
Nearby, one of the prototypes of the Foiling SuMoth Challenge, the competition for university teams to design and build the best performing and most sustainable boat, will be on display.
One of the new features for 2024 is the Networking Lounge, where FTP exhibitors can meet their guests in comfort and privacy. On the afternoon of Wednesday 20 at 17:00, a Foiling Networking Event sponsored by Pindar By Manuport Logistics, is planned for exhibitors and guests.
