The Gibraltar Maritime Administration is set to take part in this year’s edition of the prestigious Cannes Yachting Festival (September 9-14 2014) – one of the leading international events of the nautical calendar in Europe.

The festival which brings together some of the most prominent maritime companies in the industry, has long been established as a global showcase for the presentation and promotion of a wide diversity of yachting products and services.

It will also provide an excellent opportunity for the GMA to carry out networking activities in the French Riviera, to expand business relationships and forge new contacts with key players in the sector.

Gibraltar will be represented by a delegation led by Maritime Administrator Richard Montado and the Registrar of Yachts Diana Soussi Avellano, the Gibraltar Port Authority and five private companies: Gib Oil, Allabroad Sailing Academy, Ibex Insurance, Register a Yacht and World Marine Services.

Also present will be the Captain of the Port, Commodore Bob Sanguinetti. On September 12th, the Gibraltar contingent will be hosting a party for High Net Worth Individuals and industry VIP’s, followed by a briefing on the Gibraltar Maritime Register, the services it offers and new developments and upcoming projects.

Commenting on the initiative, Port Minister Neil Costa noted that the Government is keen to ‘give maximum exposure to our nautical industry, to our privileged geographical location and the sterling work carried out by the Gibraltar Maritime Administration and Gibraltar Port Authority.’
