The eagerly awaited 8th annual Superyacht Design Symposium will be chaired by Stephen Bayley, one of the world-renowned commentators on design. The event will return to the fabulous village of Kitzbuhel in the Tyrolean Alps, and will run from Sunday 21 to Tuesday 23 February, 2016.
Stephen Bayley – Chairman of the Superyacht Design Symposium 2016
With Terence Conran, Bayley created London’s influential Design Museum and over the past thirty or so years his articles as well as books have contributed to the modern notion of “design”. Bayley comments: “The Superyacht Design Symposium will be a fascinating market of ideas. When I see a superyacht, I do not just see a spectacular boat, but a floating laboratory where taste and technology are in busy competition. We’ll bring together some of the most interesting personalities from design, architecture, fashion and media to debate the superyacht’s future. I’ve always believed the best designers are the ones with most ideas and information. That applies to clients too. The Symposium will float an armada of clever opinion and privileged insights.”
Participants to the 2016 Superyacht Design Symposium will be once again able to take advantage of a rich social programme, as well as the stimulating and challenging debates and a ski cup. Delegates will be able to network with industry leaders at numerous cocktail receptions and dinners.
