The Innovation Corner is launching this year as part of the Palma Superyacht Village (27th-30th April) and is hosted by Yachting Ventures.
Yachting Ventures has confirmed further details about the lineup of startups to expect at the Innovation Corner, which aims to promote a dialogue between startups and wider industry professionals. The goal is to spark a conversation about the future of yachting and give startups a space to showcase new technologies.
Broadly, the 12 startups chosen to exhibit as part of the Innovation Corner fall into two categories - those accelerating the digitalisation of the industry via software and platform solutions, and those accelerating the transition to greener technologies and alternative propulsion.
